The double angle identities are


Then


The second identity together with the Pythagorean identity,
, gives us another equivalent expression:

so

Answer:
The correct answer is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
As stated in the question that x represents the number of minutes his <em>normal</em> commute takes. Here the keyword is normal; in the <em>normal</em> commute, Ken takes side streets instead of the toll road.
However, in this scenario, we have to come up with the equation that takes Ken's commute via <em>toll road</em>.
Ken can travel 3 times faster by taking the toll road (Given), which can be represented in the mathematical terms in terms of x as follows:

<em>Without considering Ken getting late, </em>the equation would become the following:
--- (A)
<em>As Ken is leaving late</em>, we have to incorporate that time as well by <em>adding</em> it in the aforementioned equation (A).
In this case, it's 20 minutes; therefore, the equation (A) will become:

Hence, the correct answer is
.
Answer:
I think it's 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If 2 is c than subtract it and it's 3?
First lets find the value of x. We can do this by making m∠AEB and m∠DEC equal to each other in an equation because they are vertical angles (vertical angles are equal to each other).
Your equation should look like this: m∠AEB = m∠DEC
Plug in the values of m∠AEB and m∠DEC into the equation. Now your equation should look like this:
(3x + 21) = (2x + 26)
Subtract 2x from both sides.
x + 21 = 26
Subtract 21 from both sides.
x = 5
Now plug 5 for x in either ∠AEB or ∠DEC; I will plug it into ∠AEB.
m∠AEB = 3(5) + 21
15 + 21 = 36
m∠AEB = 36°, now since ∠AEB and ∠AED are forming a straight line, this means they are supplementary so they must add up to 180 degrees.
Make m∠AEB and m∠AED add up to 180 in an equation and solve for m∠AED.
36 + m∠AED = 180
Subtract 36 from both sides.
m∠AED = 144°
Consider this option:
S=S1+S2, where S1 is area of the parallelogram, S2 is area of the triangle.
S=9*5+0.5*8*9=45+32=77 m².
Answer: 77 m.²
