Suppose that you are traveling straight from Los Angeles, California to Denver, Colorado, stopping overnight in Page, Arizona. T

he distance from L.A. to Denver is 1,017 miles, and the road connecting the three cities is a straight line. If the distance from L.A. to Page is 205 miles greater than the distance from Page to Denver, how far is L.A. from Page, and how far is Page from Denver?

The answer is
LA to Page: 611 mi
Page to Denver: 406 mi

Total distance from LA to Denver is T.
The distance LA to Page is x
The distance Page to Denver is y.

T = x + y
T = 1017
______
x + y = 1017

<span>The distance from L.A. to Page (x) is 205 miles greater than the distance from Page to Denver (y):
x = y + 205

The system of two equations:
</span>x + y = 1017
x = y + 205

Substitute x from the second equation into the first one:
y + 205 + y = 1017
2y + 205 = 1017
2y = 1017 - 205
2y = 812
y = 812 / 2
y = 406 mi (Page to Denver)

x = y + 205 = 406 + 205 = 611 mi (LA to Page)

The size of angle DEF
Masja [62]

Answer

132 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Strategy: Find angle DEB and using that fact that DEB + DEF is 180 degrees to find angle DEF

The sum of the four angles of any quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

Since three angles are given, we can use that to find the fourth.

360-(147+93+72)=size of angle DEB. Solving, you get angle DEB is 48.

Also, knowing that segment BF is a straight line, it means that angle DEB + angle DEF is equal to a straight angle (180 degrees).

DEB+DEF=180

48+DEF=180

DEF=180-48=132 degrees.

Thus, angle DEF is equal to 132 degrees.
