Cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos (49)= x/27
27 * cos(49) = x
27 * 0.656 = x
x = 17.7
They would be considered similar triangles.
Same I think it’s The first one. A
Yes because if you simplify them, both are going to give x= -3
Answer: Absolute value will alwase be a positive number, while solving an equation that does not involve absolute value could be any number. Positive, negativ, you name it. They ae similer, because either way, you are trying to figure out a varible. -hope this helped! if i misunderstood anything, let me know! i love to improve :D
