1. (07.01 MC) The moon forms a right triangle with the Earth and the Sun during one of its phases, as shown below
Sun
Earth
Moon
A scientist measures the angle x and the distance y between the Earth and the Sun. Using complete sentences, explain how the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the
distance between the moon and the Sun. (10 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

i dont 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.

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.
