Question

Given the triangle and equation below, what is the value of x?

tan∠A - csc∠C = 3x

Answer 1

Hi

Answer 2

hello

Answer 3

I believe that's how they want it. If not, then idk

Answer 4

doesn't AC = x

Answer 5

Wait a minute. Let me start over...

Answer 6

these are my choices fraction square root of 74 over 15

fraction 7 minus 5 times square root of 74 over 5

fraction 7 minus square root of 74 over 15

fraction square root of 74 over 21

And i thought it was the first one but im not sure

Answer 7

I have to find the third side by pythagorean theorem

Answer 8

That's the first step

Answer 9

and the third side is sqrt{74} which means that
tan A = 7/5
csc C = sqrt{74}/5

tan A - csc C = (7-sqrt{74})/5

Answer 10

therefore option 2

Answer 11

I'm not so sure. I believe all my steps are right, but your problem might have a typo in it

Answer 12

okay thanks
