The ball should be aimed to the point of the wall that is about 45 degrees from the wall.
Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4
Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75
Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.
===========================================================
Work Shown:
AC/QY = CD/YW
(x+5)/15 = 5/4
4(x+5) = 15*5
4x+20 = 75
4x = 75-20
4x = 55
x = 55/4
x = 13.75
------------
Explanations:
- The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
- In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
- On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a regular decagon ( 10 sided ) is calculated as
A = 0.5 × perimeter × apothem
Here side length = 3.25, hence perimeter = 10 × 3.25 = 32.5 m, thus
A = 0.5 × 32.5 × 5 = 81.25 m²
Answer:
x= 60°, y = 80°, z = 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the line substending 40° and Z°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.
Hence z= 40° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}
Similarly;
Look at the line substending 60° and x°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.
60° = x° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}
Now looking at the angle between x and y; let's call the angle between them r
And you would observe closely that r = z° = 40°{ vertically opposite angles are equal}
Note that x + r + y = 180°{ angle on a straight line}
y = 180° - ( x + r)
y = 180 - (60+40)
y = 180° - 100°
= 80°
