The length of the bridge is 12.12 feet.

The length the dog swam is 32.36 feet.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the sides and angle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The length of the bridge is the opposite side of the triangle and the length the dog swim is the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

Therefore,

Let's find the length of the bridge as follows:

tan 68° = opposite / adjacent

tan 68° = 30 / l

cross multiply

l = 30 / tan 68

l = 12.1212121212

length of the bridge = 12.12 ft

The length the dog swim is as follows:

sin 68°= opposite / hypotenuse

sin 68° = 30 / h

h = 30 / sin 68

h = 32.3561767942

The distance the dog swimmed = 32.36 ft

Round 10.09 To The Nearest Whole Number
ziro4ka [17]
Answer=10

When rounding to the nearest whole number, we need to look to the number in the tenths place

10.09 

If the number is 5 or greater, we round up. If the number is 4 or less, we round down.

The number is 0, so we would round down.

10.09 becomes 10

Find the area of each shape by decomposing each shape into rectangle and/or triangle.
avanturin [10]

Remark

You don't have to decompose the second one, and it is better if you don't. Just find the area as you probably did: use the formula for a trapezoid. You have to assume that the 6cm line hits the 2 bases at right angles for each of them, otherwise, you don't know the height. So I'm going to assume that we are in agreement about the second one.

Problem One

The answer for this one has to be broken down and unfortunately, you answer is not right for the total area, although you might get 52 for the triangle. Let's check that out.

<em><u>Triangle</u></em>

Area = 1/2 * b * h

base = 16 cm

h = 10 - 4 = 6

Area = 1/2 * 16 * 6

Area = 48

<em><u>Area of the Rectangle</u></em>

Area = L * W

L = 16

W = 4

Area = L * W

Area = 16 * 4

Area = 64

<em><u>Total Area</u></em>

Area = 64 + 48

Area = 112  of both figures <<<< Answer
