Question 1051460: The measure of /_E, the angle of elevation from point A to point B, is (3x+1)[ ]. The measure of /_D, the angle of depression from point B to point A, is 2(x+8)[ ]. Find the measure of each angle.
m/_E = 22[ ], m/_D - 30[ ]
m/_E = 15[ ], m/_D = 15[ ]
m/_E = 46[ ], m/_D = 46[ ]
m/_E = 52[ ], m/_D = 50[ ]

The measure of /_E, the angle of elevation from point A to point B, is (3x+1)[ ]. The measure of /_D, the angle of depression from point B to point A, is 2(x+8)[ ]. Find the measure of each angle.
====
measure of elevation from A = measure of depression from B
------
3x+1 = 2(x+8)
3x+1 = 2x+16
x = 15
3x+1 = 46
2(x+8) = 2(15+8) = 46
