Sorry, it's late, and I'm a bad explainer.
The error is adding (2x-12) with x and 30. This is wrong because you are adding the angles inside the triangle and you are assuming that (2x - 12) is the unlabeled angle INSIDE the triangle, when it is the exterior angle/outside of the triangle.
A straight line is also 180°.
(2x - 12) + ? = 180
30 + x + ? = 180
If you look at the equations, and put parentheses around 30 + x, (30 + x) and (2x - 12) should be the SAME NUMBER. So you could set them equal to each other to find x. (or you could also look at the picture and see that they both need/are missing the same angle)
2x - 12 = 30 + x
x = 42
Now you plug 42 into the exterior angle equation
2(42) - 12 = 84 - 12 = 72°
Answer:
I'm assuming we're solving for the hypotenuse, which is 21.5
Step-by-step explanation:
If a^2+b^2=c^2
Then 19^2+10^2 =461
This is c^2 so we must find the square root of 461
the square root of 461 is 21.47, or 21.5 rounded to the nearest tenth

Answer:
4.609 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypotenuse is the ladder because it is the slanted side. 3m is one of the other side lengths
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
3^2 + B^2 = 5.5^2
9 + B^2 = 30.25
30.25 - 9= B^2
21.25= B^2
4.609=B
