Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to multiply it by two because they have us 2 numbers for the legs, we use the Pythagorean theorem thing, but we have to basically add them, or we can multiply y 2(since they are the same number). Anyways 
The outside angle of B needs to equal 180 - 79 = 101 degrees.
The 3 outside angles of a triangle need to equal 360 degrees.
Set up the equation with what we know:
X + (x+5) + 101 = 360
Simplify:
2x + 106 = 360
Subtract 106 from both sides:
2x = 254
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 254 / 2
x = 127
Answer:
D ; Yes because the Pythagorean theorem works
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of all three sidelengths make a right triangle
Part A) Find BC, the distance from Tower 2 to the plane, to the nearest foot.
in the triangle ACD
sin16=CD/(7600+BD)--------> CD=sin16*(7600+BD)---------> equation 1
in the triangle BCD
sin24=CD/BD-----------> CD=sin24*BD---------------> equation 2
equation 1=equation 2
sin16*(7600+BD)=sin24*BD-----> sin16*7600+sin16*BD=sin24*BD
sin24*BD-sin16*BD=sin16*7600----> BD=[sin16*7600]/[sin24-sin16]
BD=15979 ft
in the triangle BCD
cos24=BD/BC---------> BC=BD/cos24-------> 15979/cos24-------> 17491
BC=17491 ft
the answer part 1) BC is 17491 ft
Part 2) Find CD, the height of the plane from the ground, to the nearest foot.
CD=sin24*BD ( remember equation 2)
BD=15979 ft
CD=sin24*15979 -----------> CD=6499 ft
the answer part 2) CD is 6499 ft
Hello!
Since the angles are same side alternate angles they are equal to each other
60 - 2x = 70 - 4x
We solve this algebraically
Add 4x to both sides
60 + 2x = 70
Subtract 60 from both sides
2x = 10
divide both sides by 2
x = 5
Hope this helps!
