Ooh this is a good one!
Firstly, let's find RT so that we can solve the top triangle.
We could actually use 3 methods to find this side: 1) trig to find RT
2) trig to find ST, then Pythagorean Theorem to determine RT
3) use the special 30-60-90 right triangle rule ... hmm, I'm going with the last because it's easiest ;)

For 30-60-90 triangles, the sides are always as follows: smallest side (opposite the 30) is s, the middle side is sSR3, and the hypotenuse is 2×s
Thus, since we have the side opposite 60, it is = sSR3, so:
s \sqrt{3}  = 2 \sqrt{3}  \\ s \sqrt{3} \div  \sqrt{3}   = 2 \sqrt{3} \div  \sqrt{3}  \\ s = 2
So now, the hypotenuse (RT) = 2s = 2(2) = 4

Secondly, we are looking at the other type of special right triangle, the 45-45-90:
The side opposite the 45s are s (remember side lengths are equal whose opposite angles are equal); and the hypotenuse is always
s \sqrt{2}
we only need QR, which is s, which is also = RT
So the answer is:
QR = x = 4

x = 4 IS THE FINAL ANSWER!!!


[ i hope by my explanations you understand how better to do special right triangles in the future] :-D

A hot air balloon is flying above Groveburg. To the left side of the balloon, the balloonist measure the angle of depression to
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer is 1.4 miles ⇒ answer (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let the balloon is at the vertex A, and the soccer fields

  at vertex B and the football field at vertex C

∴ m∠B = 20° 15' = 20.25°

∴ m∠C = 62° 30' = 62.5°

∴ m∠A = 180 - 20.25 - 62.5 = 97.25°

∵ BC = 4 miles

* By using the sin Rule:

∵ AC/sin(B) = BC/sin(A)

∴ AC = (BC)(sinB)/sin(A)

∴ AC = [4 × sin(20.25)] ÷ sin(97.25) = 1.395 ≅ 1.4 miles

∴ The distance from the balloon to the football filed = 1.4 miles

6 < 2^2 + 6
6 < 4 + 6
6 < 10 IT WORKS

y > x^2 - 4
6 > 2^2 - 4
6 > 4 - 4
6 > 0 IT WORKS

X = –6 3x − 2y = –6 solve using substetution <br> NEED FAST
kondaur [170]

Answer:

(x = -6), (y = -6)

(-6,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

X=-6

3x - 2y = -6

3(-6) - 2y = -6

-18 - 2y = -6

What you do to one side, you do to the other. And when you take it over to the other side, you'll have to turn -18 into a positive 18.

-2y = 18 - 6

-2y = 12

Divide both sides by -2

y = -6
