We can get the angle with
tan a= opposite side / adjacent side = 35ft/ 50ft=0.7, so a = arctan(0.7)=35°
look at the image
tan a= opposite side / adjacent side = 35ft/ 50ft=0.7, so a = arctan(0.7)=35°
look at the image
Write this as a fraction

Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. This means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. To solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.
A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). Out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:
.
To solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
Answer: y=
Step-by-step explanation: The slope of a perpendicular line is always negative and the reciprocal (opposite fraction) of the regular slope so the slope would be . If the line passes through (-10,-6) then the y intercept would be (0,-7) because every time x goes 10 right y goes down 1 because of the slope.
