Answer:
third side = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
let the third side be x, then
x² + 40² = 41², that is
x² + 1600 = 1681 ( subtract 1600 from both sides )
x² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 
= 9
The third side is 9
I'm assuming you want us to solve for the unknown variable z
Combine like terms on the right side
Use the distributive property on the left side
Add both sides by 20 to cancel out the "-20" on the left side
Divide both sides by 10
That is the value of the known variable, z, in this equation. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

The corresponding sides do have the correct ratios.
Answer:
Angle of elevation
Step-by-step explanation:
An angle measured from the horizontal upwards is an angle of elevation.
An angle measured from the horizontal downwards is an angle of depression.
∠ 2 is a measure from the horizontal upwards thus angle of elevation.
Note that ∠ 3 is an angle of depression
