The angle of elevation from the tripod to the top of the tree is about 66 degrees

<h3>What is trigonometric ratio?</h3>

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.

Let Ф represent the angle of elevation. Since the tripod is at a height of 4 feet, hence:

tanФ = (31 - 4) / 12

Ф = 66 degrees

The angle of elevation from the tripod to the top of the tree is about 66 degrees

The sequence forms a Geometric sequence as the rule to obtain the value for the next term is by ratio

Term 1: 1000
Term 2: 200
Term 3: 40

From term 1 to term 2, there's a decrease by \frac{1}{5}
From term 2 to term 3, there's a decrease also by \frac{1}{5}

The rule to find the n^{th} term in a sequence is 
n^{th}=a r^{n-1}, where a is the first term in the sequence and r is the ratio

So, the formula for the sequence in question is
n_{th} term = 1000( \frac{1}{5} ^{n-1} )

The sequence is a divergent one. We can always find the value of the next term by dividing the previous term by 5 and if we do that, the value of the next term will get closer to 'zero' but never actually equal to zero.

We can find a partial sum of the sequence using the formula
S_{∞} = \frac{a}{1-r} for -1<r<1 
Substituting a=1000 and r= \frac{1}{5} we have 
S_{∞} = \frac{1000}{1- \frac{1}{5} } = 1250

Hence, the correct option is option number 1

What is an equation of the line that passes through
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For the perpendicular of an equation you need to flip the fraction and change the sign from positive to negative or if it's negative to positive. 3/2 is changed to -2/3 which when multiplied by -2 gives you 4/3 and 4/3+5/3 is equal to 3.

The large puppy weighs 20.97 Pounds. This is because 2/3 of a hundred is 66. You would do 4.5 Times 4.66. This equals 20.97. It can be rounded to 21. Hope this helps!
