The answer is b = 3. you subtract 24 from bothe sides and then divide by 2.
Given:
angle of 6 : i'm assuming this is 6 degrees.
distance of 5 miles.
tan(6) = rise/5 mi
rise = 5 mi * tan(6)
rise = 5 mi * 0.10510423526
rise = 0.52552117632
rise = 0.53 miles.
So hmmm recall the "inscribed angle theorem", notice the first picture
thus, check the second picture, recall, a flat line line AOD is 180° wide
B. As the x-values increase, the y- valuebtend to decrease.
A full rotation is 360 degrees, divide 360 by the rotation given in the problem:
360 / 120 = 3
A triangle has 3 inside angles, so the answer would be an equilateral triangle.
