Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

HF = 4x + 9

EF = 5x + 3

Since FG is perpendicular to EH, ∆EFG and ∆HFG are congruent to each other.

Thus:

HF = EF

4x + 9 = 5x + 3 (substitution)

Collect like terms

4x - 5x = -9 + 3

-x = -6

Divide both sides by -1

x = 6

Cot(x) = 3.2404<br> How would you solve for x?
HACTEHA [7]
Cot (x) = 3.2404
1/tan(x) = 3.2404
tan(x) = 1 / 3.2404
x = inverse tangent ( 1 / 3.2404 )
x = 72.8 degrees (3 s.f.)
