Answer:
The simplified form is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify the expression given we, need to open the brackets, and if there is power term. Then we need to group all the like terms and then arrange in the descending order of powers of the given expression.
Now the expression that is given to us is:
Here we will simplify it by grouping the like terms, as follows:
So this is the required simplified form.
Answer:
39 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
take the tree as AB , the distance between the man and the tree as BC, the distance between the man and the tip of the shadow CD and the point intersecting the hypotenuse CE
since CE parallel to AB we can BPT
CE/AB = CD/BD
6/32= CD/48
CD = 9 feet
since CD is feet
BC is 48-9 = 39 feet
Step One
Find RST
The two base angles are given as equal and one of the is 28. So is the other one.
SRT = 28
STR = 28
All triangles have interior angles that add up to 180 degrees.
RST + SRT + STR = 180
28 + 28 + RST = 180
56 + RST = 180 Subtract 56 from both sides.
RST = 180 - 56
RST = 124
Step two
Find the exterior angle
The exterior angle = Sum of the two remote interior angles (RST + SRT)
The exterior angle = 28 + 124
The exterior angle = 152
Step Three
Find the value of x
2*x = 152 Divide by 2
x = 152 / 2
x = 76
There is a quicker way of finding the exterior angle. I didn't see it until I had written step two.
The exterior angle + STR = 180 degrees. They are supplementary.
The exterior angle + 28 = 180
The exterior angle = 180 - 28
The exterior angle = 152
4 2/3 is equal to 4 8/12. 3 and 1/4 is equal to 3 3/12. 4 8/12- 3 3/12 = 1 5/12. 1 1/2 would be a better estimate.
