nah I'll pass, I just need the points :)
Answer:
B = 612.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- The elevation of person, H = 235 ft
- The angle of depression, θ = 21°
- We will sketch a right angle triangle with Height (H), and Base (B) : the boat's distance to the edge of the cliff and the angle (θ) between B and the direct line of sight distance.
- We will use trigonometric ratios to determine the distance between boat and the edge of the cliff, using tangent function.
tan ( θ ) = H / B
B = H / tan ( θ )
B = 235 / tan ( 21 )
B = 612.2 ft
-1 = (x-1)/3
(multiply both sides by 3)
-3 = x-1
(add 1 on both sides)
x=-2
Answer:
ΔABC≅ΔDEC by AAS
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the AAS method of congruency.
Since you already have <BAC and <EDC congruent to eachother, and sides BC and EC congruent to each other, you only need that one remaining angle in between. <ACB can be proven congruent to <DCE by the Vertical Angles Theorem, and that gives you the AAS you need to prove that these two triangles are congruent
Hope this helped.
