Question

In the figure below, the length of segment CB is 58 units and the length of segment BG is 120 units. What is the length of segment GE ?

Answer 1

90 degrees its a right angle

Answer 2

i think its asking for the length tho

Answer 3

i dont know im sorry....

Answer 4

@SWAG please post only pictures related to the question

Answer 5

In triangle CBA, CB is 58
Let's find BA
We know that
\[\frac{perpendicular}{adjacent}= \tan \theta\]
WE have here perpendicular CB= 58 and adjacent = BA\[\theta =45\ degrees\]
so
\[\frac{58}{BA}= \tan 45\]tan 45= 1
so
\[BA= 58 \]
Now BG=120
\[BG=BA+AG
\]
so
\[AG=120-58=62\]
Now in triangle EAG
EG= perpendicular
AG=62
\[\theta=60\]
so
\[\frac{EG}{AG}=\tan 60\]
we get
\[EG= 62 \times \sqrt{3}\]
\[EG=107.38 units\]
