Answer:

The angle is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider the system below (were "A"is the angle):

A + [(x/2)-14] = 90 (complement)

A + x = 180 (suplement)

We can isolate "X=180 - A" and apply this in the first equation. This way we are able to have only one variable, and w'll see that A=28.

marin [14]

Answer:

The coordinates of other point are: (5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates are:

M(x,y) = (2,4)

R(x_1,x_2) = (-1,7)

We have to find the coordinates of other point (x2,y2)

The formula for mid-point is given by:

$M(x,y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Putting the values we get

$(2,4) = (\frac{-1+x_2}{2}, \frac{7+y_2}{2})$

Putting respective elements equal

$\frac{-1+x_2}{2} = 2\\-1+x_2 = 2*2\\-1+x_2 = 4\\x_2 = 4+1\\x_2 = 5\\And\\\frac{7+y_2}{2} = 4\\7+y_2 = 4*2\\7+y_2 = 8\\y_2 = 8-7\\y_2 = 1$

Hence,

The coordinates of other point are: (5,1)

Find the distance between the points (9,3) and (–5,3).

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The answer to the question provided is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

》The Distance Formula:

$d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2} }$

》Plug in.

$d = \sqrt{( - 5 - 9)^{2} + (3 - 3) ^{2} } \\ d = \sqrt{( - 14)^{2} + (0) ^{2} } \\ d = \sqrt{196 + 0} \\ d = \sqrt{196} \\ d = 14$
