Answer:

y = 3,254.3 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets denote with 'x' and 'y' the distances we need to find.

Using the Law of Sines we can write:

x/(sin 76) = 1175/(sin(180 - (83 + 76))

x/(sin 76) = 1175/(sin 21)

x = 3,181.4 yd

y/(sin 83) = 1175/(sin(180 - (83 + 76))

y/(sin 83) = 1175/(sin 21)

y = 3,254.3 yd

The platform is 3,181.4 yards far from one end of the beach and 3,254.3 yd far from the other.

Which angle measures are correct? Select three options,
masya89 [10]

Answer:

m∠W = 125°

m∠X = 55°

m∠Z = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is parallelogram WXYZ. m∠Y = 125.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral shape in which both opposite sides and opposite angles are equal to each other. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Also consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

Therefore in parallelogram WXYZ:

m∠Z + m∠Y = 180° (Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary)

m∠Z + 125 = 180

m∠Z = 180 - 125

m∠Z = 55°

m∠W = m∠Y (Opposite angles are equal)

m∠W = 125°

m∠W + m∠X = 180° (Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary)

m∠X + 125 = 180

m∠X = 180 - 125

m∠X = 55°

Solve in details 2x+10=16​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Solution for 2x-10=16 equation:

2x - 10 = 16

2x = 16 + 10

2x = 26 (divide both sides by 2 to get x)

2x/2 = 26/2

x = 13

Let a= x^2 +4. Rewrite the following equation in terms of a and set it equal to zero.
swat32

Answer:

C and G

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2+4)^2+32=12x^2+48 is written as (x^2+4)^2+32=12x^2+48.

We can simplify the expression using the term a by replacing x^2 + 4 with a.

(x^2+4)^2+32=12x^2+48\\(x^2+4)^2+32=12(x^2+4)\\a^2 + 32 = 12a\\a^2 - 12a + 32 = 0

This factors into (a-4)(a-8). Solve by setting each factor equal to 0 and solve for a.

a-4 = 0                 a=4

a-8=0                   a=8
