Answer:
BEC is 90 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
DO + OB = DB
15 + 3x + 7 = 9x - 2
3x + 22 = 9x - 2
3x + 24 = 9x
24 = 6x
4 = x
We assume that the dimension 5 has units of feet.
The area of each triangle will be
A = (1/2)bh
where b=2×(5 ft), h=(5 ft)tan(54°)
Then
A = (1/2)(2×5 ft)(5 ft)(tan(54°)
A = 25×tan(54°) ft²
There are 5 such triangles making up this pentagon, so the total area is
total area = 5×25×tan(54°) ft²
≈ 172 ft²
