The measure of Angle E, the angle of elevation from point A to point B, is left-parenthesis 3 x plus 1 right parenthesis-degrees. The measure of Angle D, the angle of depression from point B to point A, is 2 left-parenthesis x plus 8 right parenthesis-degrees. Find the measure of each angle.

appreciate any help.

Answer:

∠D = ∠E = 46°  

Step-by-step explanation:

∠D and ∠E are interior opposite angles.

      ∠D = ∠E

2(x + 8) = 3x + 1

2x + 16 = 3x + 1

          x = 15°

∠D = 2(15 + 8) = 2 × 23 = 46°

∠E = 3× 15+ 1 = 45 + 1  = 46°

The measure of angle of elevation and angle of depression between points A and B is 46°.

What is angle of depression?

The angle of depression is an angle formed between the horizontal line and the line of sight when an observer looks downwards at an object.

What is angle of elevation?

The angle of elevation is an angle between the horizontal plane and oblique line from the observer’s eye to some object above his eye.

The measure of angle of depression and angle of elevation between two points is equal.

Angle of elevation = Angle of depression

⇒3x + 1 = 2(x + 8)

⇒3x + 1 = 2x + 16

⇒x = 15

Measure of angle = 3x + 1 = 46°
