The angle of depression is also equal to the angle of elevation (at least in terms of magnitude) so:

tanα=306/450

α=arctan(306/450)

α≈34.2°  (to nearest tenth of a degree)

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

B) irrational. Since an irrational number cannot equal a rational number.  

The premise that c is rational is false

Step-by-step explanation:

The assumption that c is rational means that the difference c-a must be rational. That difference is b, so b=c-a would mean that b must be rational. But b is defined to be irrational. Since an irrational number cannot equal a rational number, a contradiction arises and the assumption that c is rational must be false. Therefore the sum (c) must be irrational. (B)
