The distance between park station 1 and the point where the flare was set off is 73.9 km.

<h3>What is distance?</h3>

Distance is the length between two points expressed in meters or kilometers.

To calculate the distance between park station 1 and the point where the flare was set off can be calculated using Sine Rule

Formula:

  • a/sinA = b/sinB....................... Equation 1

Where:

  • a = Distance between park station 1 and the point where the flare was set off.

Make a the subject of the equation

  • a = bsinA/sinB............ Equation 2

From the diagram,

Given:

  • A = 59°
  • B = (180-59-75) = 46°
  • b = 6.2 km

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • a = 6.2(sin59°)/(sin46°)
  • a = 73.9 km

Hence, the distance between park station 1 and the point where the flare was set off is 73.9 km.

What is the point-slope form of a line that has a slope of -4 and passes through point (-3, 1)?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

B. y - 1 = -4[x - (-3)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = -4

Point = (-3, 1)

Required:

Point-slope form of the line

Solution:

Equation of a line in Point-slope form is given as y - b = m(x - a).

Where,

a = -3

b = 1

m = -4

Plug in the values

y - 1 = -4[x - (-3)]

The isosceles triangles below are similar.
ohaa [14]

Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.

b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.

c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.

EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.

Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.

HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.

d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.
