Given:
A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree and flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.
To find:
The length of the tree.
Solution:
A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree.
Vertical distance between bird and base = 16 feet
Then the bird flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.
Now, the vertical distance between bird and base = (16+20) feet
So, length of the oak tree is it the sum of 16 feet and 20 feet.
feet
feet
Therefore, the length of the oak tree is 36 feet.

Answer:
If x + 9 = 5 then x =-
4
If x + 9 = -5 then x =-14
Step-by-step explanation:
x+9 =5
Subtract 9 from each side
x+9-9 = 5-9
x = -4
x+9 = -5
Subtract 9 from each side
x+9-9=-5-9
x = -14
Answer:
m∠EGF = 65° and m∠CGF = 115°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
∠EFG = 50°
EF = FG
Solution,
In ΔEFG m∠EFG = 50° and EF = FG.
Since triangle is an isosceles triangle hence their base angles are always equal.
∴
Let the measure of ∠EGF be x.
∴ 
Now by angle Sum property which states "The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°."
m∠EFG + m∠FEG + ∠EGF = 180

Hence
m∠EGF = 65°
Also 'The sum of angles that are formed on a straight line is equal to 180°."
m∠EGF + m∠CGF = 180°
65° + m∠CGF = 180°
m∠CGF = 180° - 65° = 115°
Hence m∠EGF = 65° m∠CGF = 115°
