Answer:
x= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are congruent
<B = <E
50 = 5x
Divide each side by 5
50/5 = 5x/5
10 =x
<span>12(5y+4)
= 12(5y) + 12(4)
= 60y + 48

The angle of elevation from the hiker to the park ranger is the same as the angle of depression from the ranger to the hiker, 29°.
The tangent function of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side (500') to the adjacent side (x) in the right triangle shown. That is
tan(29°) = 500' / x
Multiplying the equation by x/tan(29°) gives
x = 500' / tan(29°)
x ≈ 500' / 0.5543
x ≈ 902 ft
