R ---------E

RE = 16mi
DE = 32 mi

DR^2 = DE^2 - RE^2 = (32mi)^2 - (16mi)^2 = 768 mi^2

DR = √(768 mi^2) = 27.7 mi

Given:
                          Dayton
                                             --32 mi--                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                                Richmond  -- 16 mi--           Easton


I can't draw a line but the figure drawn based on the given description is a RIGHT TRIANGLE.

Richmond to Easton is the short leg.
Dayton to Easton is the hypotenuse.
Richmond to Dayton is the long leg.

We are looking for the measure of the long leg. We will use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²
a² + 16² = 32²
a² + 256 = 1,024
a² = 1,025 - 256
a² = 768 mi²
a = √768 mi²
a = 27.71 mi   This is the distance of Dayton from Richmond

Can someone please help me find the measure of the exterior angle.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

X=128°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to of the two opposite interior angle.

The sum of the exterior and interior angle is equal to 180°

In this case the part marked red = 90° because is a right angled triangle.

90+38=128

180- 128=52

180- 52=128

x=128.
