Answer:

b= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b =72

a-b = 22

2a = 94

DBS(Divide Both Side) by 2

a = 47

=47 +b =72

and:

47 -b =22

subtract 47 from both sides:

b=25

and

-b = -25 MBS(Multiply Both Side) by-1 ....>b=25

An engineer needs to determine the distance across a river without swimming to the other side. The engineer notices a tree on th
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The engineer can use a clinometer to measure the angle of elevation of the top of the tree. Let the height of the tree be represented by x, the she could determine the distance across the river, d, by applying the trigonometric function.

Tan θ = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

           = \frac{x}{d}

the the distance, d = x ÷ Tan θ

Assume the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is 30^{o}, and the height of the tree is 10 m, then the distance, d, across the river would be;

d = \frac{10}{0.5774}

  = 17.3190

d = 17.32 m

The sketch to the explanation is attached to this answer for more clarification.

How do I answer this??
Mandarinka [93]
We know that:
∠ABC=∠BCA=xº
∠BDC=∠BCD=xº

1) we have to find the angle ∠DBC:
∠BDC+∠BCD+∠DBC=180º
xº+xº+∠DBC=180º
2xº+∠DBC=180º
∠DBC=180º-2xº

2) we have to find the angle ∠ABD:
∠ABD=∠ABC-∠DBC
∠ABD=xº-(180º-2x)
∠ABD=xº-180º+2xº
∠ABD=3xº-180º

Answer: ∠ABD=3xº-180º

Kayla held a pole in the swimming pool. The bottom of the pole was at a depth of 3 feet. How should Kayla mark the level of the
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Kayla should mark the level 3 whole tick marks to the left of the zero on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

This would mean the number is negative, for it is on the left of the zero. Another way to say this could be that the absolute value of -3 is three, for it is three whole tick marks from the zero.
