Answer:

57.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

A 25 feet ladder leans against a building.

The ladder's base is 13.5 feet from the building.

The ladder, the wall of the building and the ground form a right-angled triangle of:

Hypotenuse = 25 feet

Base = 13.5 feet

We are to find the angle of elevation which the ladder makes with the ground (or rather the angle created by hypotenuse and base)

Let's say the angle = X°

According to a trigonometric equation;

cos X° = adjacent side ÷ hypotenuse = \frac{13.5}{25} = 0.54

cos ^{-1} X = 57.5=3° (Answer rounded up to nearest one decimal place).

∴ The angle of elevation = 57.3°

PLEASE HELP! IM ALMOST DONE WITH THIS ASSIGNMENT PLSSS HELPP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST SHOW UR WORK
Talja [164]

Answer:

x = -3

y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x - 13

3x = y - 1;  let y = 3x + 1

substitute to solve for 'x':

2(3x + 1) = x - 13

6x + 2 = x - 13

5x + 2 = -13

5x = -15

x = -3

solve for 'y':

3(-3) = y - 1

-9 = y - 1

-8 = y
