(60 points) the measure of angle e, the angle of elevation from point a to point b, is 5(x-2) degrees. the measure of d, the angle of depression from point b to point a is (x + 14) degrees. find the measure of each angle.

Take a look at the figures, it's the same angle from a different point of view, so since they are both equal we can set these two equations equal to each other, then solve for 'x':



Distribute 5 into the parenthesis:



Add 10 to both sides:



Subtract 'x' to both sides:



Divide 4 to both sides:



So this is our value of 'x', we can plug it into any of the two equations to find the measurement for both angles:







So the length of both angle E and angle D is 20 degrees.

All points to the left of zero on a horizontal number line are negative. a number line is a picture of a graduated straight line that serves as abstraction for real numbers. this number line can be extended to the left to represent numbers which are smaller than 0. such numbers are called negative numbersmark me brainliest
