City A is 9 miles due to City B. City C is 12 miles due east to City B. To the nearest mile what is the straight-line distance from City A to city C?

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

both triangles are similar because 2 is just smaller than the big one 1 is similar because they are facing different way's but are similar to each other

step-by-step explanation:

i think the answer is b x = 1, y = 35/2
