Answer:
3j + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
5j - (2j - 6) Distribute the negative inside the parentheses
5j - 2j + 6 Combine like terms
3j + 6
Answer:
Part A) The triangles ABC and EDC are similar by AAA, because the three internal angles are equal in both triangles
Part B) The width of the river is about 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent
Part A) we know that
In this problem , triangles ABC and CDE are similar by AAA, because its corresponding angles are congruent
so
m<DCE=m<ACB -----> by vertical angles
m<EDC=m<ABC -----> is a right angle
m<DEC=m<CAB -----> the sum of the internal angles must be equal to 180 degrees
Part B) we know that
The triangles ABC and EDC are similar -------> see Part A
therefore

substitute the values and solve for AB


See the picture attached to better understand the problem
we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1
applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2
the answer isthe hypotenuse is (3√2)/2
Answer:
