(2)5x-y=12
3x+2y=2
10x-2y=12
3x+2y=2
13x=2
x=0.15
one angle is 3x-3
another angle is 6(x-10)
Both angles are vertically opposite angles
Vertically opposite angles are always equal
So we equation both the angles and solve for x
3x - 3= 6(x-10)
3x - 3 = 6x - 60
Subtract 6x from both sides
-3x - 3 = -60
Add 3 on both sides
-3x = -57
Divide by 3
x = 19
The value of x= 19
Answer:
The trigonometric ratio that I would use to find the distance from the base of the tower to the keys is the tangent; tan (86°) = height / distance.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can draw a right triangle with angle 86°, opposite leg equal to the height (50 meter) and adjacent leg equal to the distance from the base of the tower to the keys: tan (86°) = 50 m / x
=> x = 50 m / tan(86°)
x = 50 m / 14.30 = 0.98 m
