Answer:

3.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

1:4 = x:14 ; where x is the unknown length of A
1/4 = x/14 (Cross multiply)
Giving us, 4×x = 14×1
4x = 14 (Divide both sides by co-efficient of x, which is 4)
x = 14/4
x = 3.5
Therefore, the length of A is 3.5 meters.

Answer:

<h2> x₁ = - 2 + √2 , x₂ = - 2 - √2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2 + 12x + 6 = 0\\\\a=3\,,\ b=12\,,\ c=6\\\\\\ x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\ x=\dfrac{-12\pm\sqrt{12^2-4\cdot3\cdot6}}{2\cdot3}=\dfrac{-12\pm\sqrt{144-72}}{2\cdot3}=\dfrac{-12\pm\sqrt{72}}{2\cdot3}=\dfrac{-12\pm6\sqrt{2}}{6}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{6(-2+\sqrt{2})}{6}=-2+\sqrt2\\\\x_2=\dfrac{6(-2-\sqrt{2})}{6}=-2-\sqrt2$

We can see that the 33 degrees corresponds to angle A (parallel lines) meaning they’re equal.
This means that 33 + 2x = 5x (5x is the exterior angle, so the other two interior angles’ sum must equal to it)
3x = 33
x = 11
