Question

Can someone help? This is hard

Answer 1

CT=90°

BTA=90°

x=29

CT=37

TA=20

CA=57

Explanation:

they say BT is an altitude ( or height) . Altitudes are perpendicular meaning that:

BTC =90°

BTA=90°

Therefore:

(3x+3)°=90°

3x=90-3

3x=87°

x=29

CT:

x+8

=29+8

=37

TA:

x-9

=29-9

=20

CA:

=CT+TA

=37+20

=57
