Answer:

x = 79.799

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply trigonometric ratio formula to find x.

Thus, find the adjacent side of each triangle using 40° and 65° as reference angles respectively.

✔️Adjacent length of the triangle with reference angle 40°:

tan (40) = 110/adj

adj*tan(40) = 110

Adjacent length = 110/tan(40)

Adjacent length = 131.093 (nearest thousandth)

✔️Adjacent length of the triangle with reference angle 65°:

tan (65) = 110/adj

adj*tan(65) = 110

Adjacent length = 110/tan(65)

Adjacent length = 51.294 (nearest thousandth)

✔️Find x:

x = 131.093 - 51.294

x = 79.799

27^x = 9^x − 4 Question 1 options: x = 8 x = 4 x = −4 x = −8

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$27^x=9^{x-4}$

Note that

$27=3^3\\ \\9=3^2,$

then

$27^x=(3^3)^x=3^{3x}\\ \\9^{x-4}=(3^2)^{x-4}=3^{2(x-4)}$

Rewrite the equation as

$3^{3x}=3^{2(x-4)},$

then

$3x=2(x-4)\\ \\3x=2x-8\\ \\3x-2x=-8\\ \\x=-8$

Which angle measure below is not a possible measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon?

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

All exterior angles of a regular polygon would equal 360 degrees. SO... based on that, one exterior angle would have to multiplied by whatever sum (whole number) to equal 360 degrees to find the number of sides. Here you divide 360 by one of the exterior angles, if it does not equal a whole number then it would be inaccurate.
In this case only 54 degrees would not fit into one of the exterior angles.
