The 7 miles and 24 miles make up two "legs" of a right triangle.
The third side (or hypotenuse) is the distance between the towns.
distance^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
distance^2 = 49 + 576
distance^2 = 625
distance = square root of 625 or 25
Third angle = 180 - (44 + 72) = 180 - 116 = 64 degrees answer
∠1 = ∠2
2x +10 = 3x -6
16 = x . . . . . . . . . . . add 6-2x
Selection B is appropriate.
