The solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
<em><u>We have to substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>
Substitute x = 2.1925 in eqn 1
y = 2.1925 + 3
y = 5.1925
Substitute x = -3.1925 in eqn 1
y = -3.1925 + 3
y = -0.1925
Thus the solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)
The complete question is
"A theater production group is making frames to support wall-like props. Three-foot beams form right triangles with 10-foot beams to allow them to stand, as shown in the image.
What is x, the angle at which the diagonal beam meets the 10-foot beam at the top of the frame?
16.7°, 17.5°, 72.5°,73.3°"
The value of angle x would be 16.7 degrees.
<h3>What is the right triangle?</h3>A right-angle triangle is a triangle that has a side opposite to the right angle the largest side and is referred to as the hypotenuse.
The angle of a right angle is always 90 degrees.
In order to find the value of x, a tan would be used.
This is because we have given the opposite and adjacent sides as 10 ft and 3 ft.
Tan Ф = opposite / adjacent
Tan Ф = (3/10)
= 16.7 degrees
The value of angle x would be 16.7 degrees.
