Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf x = 5.3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

y = 12 cm

θ = 24°

Using trigonometric ratio, tan.

\displaystyle \boxed{tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} }\\\\tan \ 24 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\0.445 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\Multiply \ 12 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\0.445 \times 12 = x\\\\5.3 = x\\\\x = 5.3\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}

Use signed numbers to solve. A helicopter descended 1200 feet, rose 800 feet, and then descended 450 feet. What was the net gain
sergey [27]
The rise or an increase in altitude is represented by positive sign and a decend or decrease in altitude is represented by negative sign. 

First the helicopter descended 1200 feet. So the change in altitude will be -1200 feet.

Then the helicopter rose by 800 feet. So the change in altitude will be 800 feet.

Finally the helicopter descended by 450 feet. So the change in altitude will be -450 feet.

The net change in altitude will be the sum of all the above 3 changes. 
Change in altitude = -1200 + 800 - 450 = -850 feet

The negative sign indicates a descend i.e. loss in altitude. So the net change in altitude was a loss of 850 feet.

How can I figure out this math problem: Stanley ran a 5 kilometer race in 30 minutes. What was his speed in kilometers per hour?
stiv31 [10]
Since the question is asking for the time units to be in hours, you want to convert 30 minutes to an hour; 0.5

We’re able to use the basic motion formula for velocity to work out this question.

Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = 5 / 0.5
Velocity = 10km/h

Therefore, Stanley’s average speed was 10 kilometres per hour. :)
