Step-by-step explanation:
Define AD to be of length 1.
Use the sine rule on ACD
⇒AC=sin(80)sin(40)=2cos(40)
Triangle ABD is isosceles so AB=AD=1
Now consider triangle ABC. We know sides AB and AC and we know the angle between them. We can find a missing angle for this triangle by the formula:
tan(C)=sin(A)bc−cos(A)
(I don't recall seeing this formula before so I just worked it out. I think it's true for every triangle. Shout if you disagree.)
In this case:
tan(x)=sin(20)2cos(40)1−cos(20)
tan(x)=sin(20)4cos2(20)−cos(20)−2
tan(x)=sin(20)3–√sin(20) (*)
tan(x)=13–√
So x = 30 degrees
* Here is a proof that
4cos2(20)−cos(20)−2=3–√sin(20)
Define s=sin(20) and c=cos(20).
Using the triple angle formulas:
12=cos(60)=4c3−3c
3√2=sin(60)=−4s3+3s
Multiply the first by c and the second by s and add:
c2+3√s2=4c4−3c2−4s4+3s2
=4(c2−s2)(c2+s2)−3(c2−s2)
=(c2−s2)(4−3)
=(2c2−1)
So
c2+3√s2=2c2−1
4c2−c−2=3–√s
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
40+75+x=180 (angle sum property)
110+x=180
x=180-110
x=70
