Answer: Casey is standing 52.5 feet from the
lighthouse
Step-by-step explanation:
A right angle triangle is formed. The height of
the lighthouse represents the opposite side
of the right angle triangle. The distance, h
from the lighthouse to where Casey is
standing represents the adjacent side of the
right angle triangle. Casey's line of sight
along the angle of elevation represents the
hypotenuse.
To determine h, we would apply
the tangent trigonometric ratio.
Tan 0, =opposite side/adjacent side.
Therefore,
Tan 58 = 84/h
h = 84/tan 58 = 84/1.6
h= 52.5 feet

Find the surface area of the cylinder (please help)
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

surface area we can also take it as total surface area

9 is the radius and 5cm is the height . as they asked total surface area we have to take the area of base so tht we can make it as

total surface area = csa of cylinder + area of base

we know that,

2pirh+pir²

pir(2h+r)

pir(2×5+9)

pir(10+9)

pir(19)

22/7×9×19

3762/7

=> 537.42 cm² is the answer.

Solve for b.<br> -t = 9(t - 10)<br> (WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST)
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Do you mean solve for t?

If you do, the answer is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we expand the equation out, we get:

-t = 9t - 90

If we move the -90 over to the left side and the -t to the right side, we get:

90 = 10t

Dividing both sides by 9, we get:

t = 9

Sam is practicing long track speed skating at an ice skating rink. The distance around the rink is 250 yards. He has skated arou
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

He needs to complete a distance of 4,030 yards around the rink to make a total skating distance of 3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of yards needed to complete 3 miles skating around a rink.

We proceed as follows;

First, we can see he has skated 5 times around a rink that has a distance of 250 yards. His total distance covered would be 250 * 5 = 1250 yards

Now he is looking at completing 3 miles, we need to know the number of yards in 3 miles.

Mathematically, 1 mile = 1760 yards

3 miles = 3 * 1760 = 5,280 yards

To know the number of yards he need to skate more, we simply carry out a subtraction;

5,280 yards - 1250 yards = 4,030 yards
