Juan sees a maple tree and a pine tree in the forest. He knows that the pine tree is 20.04 feet tall. On a sunny day, the shadow of the pine is 5.4 feet long while the maple's shadow is 10 feet long. Estimate the height of the maple tree. A. about 40 ft

B. about 60 ft

C. about 23 ft

D. about 57 ft

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
