Answer:

  • 21°

Step-by-step explanation:

A boat captain, lighthouse and its base form a right triangle.

<u>We need to find the angle opposite to 22 ft side:</u>

  • tan x = 22/103
  • x = arctan (22/103)
  • x = 21°

<em>Note, option D should read 21° not 11°</em>

Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

  • solutions: (2, 10), (4, 5)
  • non-solutions: all other points

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be useful to graph the inequalities related to Tyler's limits of money and weight.

  1x +3y ≤ 36 . . . . . . the limit on the cost of the items Tyler can afford

  1x +1.5y ≤ 20 . . . . . the limit on the weight of the items Tyler can carry

Then plotting the given points shows that only (2, 10) and (4, 5) are in the doubly-shaded area that is the solution space. The other points are not a solution.

What is DA equal to? Brainiest if correct and please show your answer.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

<h2>DA is equal to <u>25</u> or BA</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC

ADC

  1. Since we know that line CA is equal to line CA because of <em>reflexive property</em>
  2. Angle BAC and DAC are equal because of <em>definition of an angle bisector</em>
  3. Angle ABC and ADC are equal because of <em>definition of an angle bisector</em>
  4. This will give us <em>ASA</em>, proving to us that all sides and angles are congruent <u>(this was already given to us)</u>
  5. So, if BA is 25, and we know that BA is congruent to DA, this tells us that DA is 25
