Given the figure below, find the values of and .

45

step-by-step explanation:

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places

answer: 75°

step-by-step explanation:

∠esk is the supplement of ∠edk, so is 100°. ∠esd = 1/2·arc ed, so is 25°.

since ∠esk = ∠esd + ∠dsk

you have 100° = 25° + ∠dsk . .

fill in known values 75° = ∠dsk . . . . .

subtract 25°
