Fishing Contest One contestant in a catch-and-release fishing contest spends the morning at a location 1.8 miles due north of the starting point, then goes 1.2 miles due east for the rest of the day. A second contestant starts out 1.2 miles due east of the starting point, then goes another 1.8 miles in a direction 84° south of due east to spend the rest of the day. Which angler is farther from the starting point at the end of the day? Explain how you know.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
