Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have an equilateral triangle. All three sides have the same length, 2. Therefore, the interior angles are all equal to 60 degrees.
Therefore, 6 - 9x = 60, and -9x = 54. Dividing both sides by -9 results in
x = -54/9, or x = -6.
Answer:
15 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the dock is at the origin on a coordinate plane and each unit is 1 mile. If the boat travels 9 mile due north, that means that we move up from the origin (0, 0) 9 units to point A (0, 9). Now, this boat moves 12 miles due west, so we will go 12 units to the left of (0, 9) to point B (-12, 9). See the attached drawing (sorry for the crudeness).
Notice that this is a right triangle with legs of 9 and 12. That means the distance from the boat to the dock is just the hypotenuse, so use the Pythagorean Theorem: distance = 
Thus, the answer is 15 miles.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
I think it's six
Step-by-step explanation:
A= 1
b= 2
c= 3
The ratio is 12:28. Or in fraction form it’s 12/28. You can also simplify it to 3/7
Answer:
B. m ∠ 1 = 90° and m ∠ 2 = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
For most situations, the conjecture would probably be true, but there is one exception that makes this statement false.
When two right angles are supplementary, none of them is acute.
For an angle to be acute it needs to be lesser than 90°, and for a pair of angles to be supplementary they should add up to exactly 180°.
With a pair of right angles (90° each), their sum adds up to 180° but neither of them are acute.
Therefore, the answer is B. m ∠ 1 = 90° and m ∠ 2 = 90°
