Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal such that two alternate interior angles are formed. If one of the angles is 72 degrees and the other angle is ( 5x + 2) , what is the value of x? *

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2=72

    -2  -2

5x=70

  5

x=18

what do u need to know

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
