Hi there! :)

<u>Answer:</u>

The answer is <u>D. 83°</u>


Step-by-step explanation:

You should know that the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180°.

So, what you will need to do, is add all 3 angles together and create an equation (equal to 180). Then you need to solve this equation by isolating "x":

(8x + 12) + (55 - 3x) + (10x + 23) = 180

Get rid of all the parentheses

8x + 12 + 55 - 3x + 10x + 23 = 180

Add all similar terms together

8x - 3x + 10x = <u>15x</u>

12 + 55 + 23 = <u>90</u>

15x <u>+ 90</u> = 180

Subtract "90" from each side of the equation → 180 - 90 = 90

<u>15</u>x = 90

Divide each side of the equation by "15" → 90 ÷ 15 = 6

<u>x = 6</u>


Since you now know that the value of "x" is 6, you can now find the measure of the angle at George's position by replacing the "x" by 6:

10x + 23 = Measure of the angle at George's position

<u>10(6)</u> + 23

Multiply 10 by 6 → 10 × 6 = 60

<u>60 + 23</u>

Add 60 and 23 together → 60 + 23 = 83

<u>83</u> = Measure of the angle at George's position


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Tyler does squats and pushups. He wants to increase the number of each type of exercise by 20% by the end of the month. He curre
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Tyler currently does 40 squats

Step-by-step explanation:

Tyler does squats and pushups.

<u>Currently:</u>

Number of pushups = 25

Number of squats = x

Total number = 25 + x

<u>After increase:</u>

Number of pishups =25\cdot (1+0.2)=1.2\cdot 25=30

Number of squats =x\cdot (1+0.2)=1.2x

Total number =30+1.2x

If Tyler meets his goal, he will do a total of 13 more squats and pushups than he does now, thus

(30+1.2x)-(25+x)=13\\ \\30+1.2x-25-x=13\\ \\1.2x-x=13-30+25\\ \\0.2x=8\\ \\2x=80\\ \\x=40

Two vertical buildings 57 meters apart are 158 meters and 237 meters high. Find the angle of elevation from the top of the short
miskamm [114]

Given :

Two vertical buildings 57 meters apart are 158 meters and 237 meters high.

To Find :

The angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building.

Solution :

Distance between height of building, h = 237 - 158 = 79 m.

Distance between these building , d = 57 m.

Now,

tan\ \theta = \dfrac{h}{d}\\\\tan\ \theta = \dfrac{79}{57}\\\\tan\ \theta = 1.386\\\\\theta = tan ^{-1} 1.386\\\\\theta = 54.19^{\circ}

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building is 54.19°.

Hence, this is the required solution.
