At a basketball game, a team made 53 successful shots. they were a combination of 1- and 2-point shots. the team scored 87 points in all. write and solve a system of equations to find the number of each type of shot.

answer: the angel abc is 30°,and the abc is a triangle where the angel bac is 90°

so ac is the half of 24=12ft,and from the pythagorean theorem we find ba

ba=√bc^2-ac^2=√576-144=√432=12√3ft

so bac is 12+12√3=12(1+√3)ft
