Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
the sine of an angle = 
(a)
here the opposite is 12 and the hypotenuse is 13
12 is the side opposite ∠DEF ← required angle
(b)
the tangent of an angle = 
here the opposite is 5 and the adjacent is 12
∠DFE ← required angle
(2)
to calculate AB use Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
AB² = 2² + 3² = 4 + 9 = 13, hence
AB =
≈ 3.6 ( to nearest tenth )
tanB =
⇒ B = 33.7°
tanA =
⇒ A = 56.3°
Okay... so the y intercept it automatically 9. so that's out of the way. Now you narrow it down to a or b. the first number, with x is -3x. Thats your slope. easy as that
I believe 7 feet would be the height of the sail.
