Answer:

19 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Will have a triangle with horizontal distance being 2800, and vertical being 1000 feet. Angle between the horizontal and hypotenuse is what we are looking for.

Thus it's a tangent function.

CAH

TOA <-----

Tangent is the opposite / adjacent

So we will be looking at doing an Arctan to find the angle.

Arctan α = \frac{1000}{2800}  = 19.29 degrees. Round to the nearest whole degree would be 19 degrees due to being less than .50

Your answer is 19 degrees

6. Complete the two-column proof.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Given: \frac{x}{6} + 2 = 15                             ......[1]

To prove : x =78

Subtraction property states that you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation.

Subtract 2 from both sides of an equation [1];

\frac{x}{6} + 2 - 2= 15 -2

Simplify:

\frac{x}{6} = 13                                             ......[2]

Multiplication property states that you multiply the same number to both sides of an equation.

Multiply 6 to both sides of an equation [2];

\frac{x}{6} \times 6 = 13 \times 6

Simplify:

x = 78                      proved!

Statement                                           Reason

1.  \frac{x}{6} + 2 = 15                 Given

2.  \frac{x}{6} = 13                 Subtraction property of equality

3. x = 78                              Multiplication property of equality
