Answer:

the road is 142 ft away from the center of the bridge tower.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the bridge tower is standing vertical to the the road, therefore, the angle made by it is a right angle.

Therefore, the triangle made by cable(hypotenuse) and bridge tower (Perpendicular) on road (base) must be a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem, we have

H² = P²+ B²

P²=H²-B²

P²=(245.9)²-(200.7)²

P=√20186.32=142.07

Geometry segment proofs​
Lemur [1.5K]

solving a linear equation we conclude that the value of x must be 6.

<h3>How to find the value of x?</h3>

On the statement we have the relations:

AB = BC

BC = CD

For the transitive property, then we have that:

AB = CD

Replacing the equations in the image, we get:

2x + 1 = 4x - 11

Solving this linear equation for x we get:

1 + 11 = 4x - 2x

12 = 2x

12/2 = x

6 = x

So yes, solving that linear equation we conclude that the value of x must be 6.
