Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
b=4x+1 h=x+1 A=175
A=bh
Substitute: 175=(4x+1)(x+1)
Expand: 175=4x^2+5x+1
Subtract 175
4x^2+5x-174=0
Solve w/quadratic formula
(-5 <u>+</u> sqrt(25+2784))/8
Simplify: x=6 or -29/4
Distance is positive, so x=6
4x+1=4*6+1=25
Since you know that PQ=RQ, you have an equilateral triangle. This makes things very simple.
Angle R should be the same as angle P.
A triangle is equal to 180 degrees.
Add angles P and R. Subtract 180 from the answer you got. That will give you 2a. a divided by 2 will give you a.
Or, since there are two right triangles, you can add 47 and 90. Subtract 180 from that and you will get a.
