You would use TOA from trig so your equation would be

Opposite = tan(angle) X adjacent

X = tan(15) X 400
It should equal 6000 but check that using the equation on a calculator :)

a line passes through (9, –9) and (10, –5).write an equation for the line in point-slope form. rewrite the equation in standard

The equation of the line in point-slope form is given by:
$y-yo = m (x-xo)
$
Where,
(xo, yo): point that belongs to the line
m: slope of the line
The slope is given by:
$m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$
Substituting values:
$m = \frac{-5-(-9)}{10-9}$
Rewriting:
$m = \frac{-5+9}{10-9}$
$m = \frac{4}{1}$
$m=4$
Now we choose an ordered pair:
$(xo, yo) = (10, -5)
$
Substituting values we have:
$y-(-5)=4(x-10)$
$y+5=4(x-10)$
We now rewrite the equation in its standard form:
$y = mx + b
$
Where,
b: cut with the y axis.
We have then:
$y = 4x - 40 - 5

y = 4x - 45$
Answer:
point-slope form:
$y+5=4(x-10)$
or
$y+9=4(x-9)$
standard form
$y = 4x- 45$
