Answer:

9.80 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relationship between sides of a right triangle and its angles.

<h3>setup</h3>

The geometry of this problem can be modeled by a right triangle, so these relations apply. We are given an angle and adjacent side, and asked for the opposite side, so the relation of interest is ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Using the given values, we have ...

tan(24°) = AC/AB = (tree height)/(distance from tree)

tan(24°) = AC/(22 m)

<h3>solution</h3>

Multiplying by 22 m gives ...

tree height = AC = (22 m)·tan(24°) ≈ 9.79503 m

The height of the tree is about 9.80 meters.

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

<h2 /><h2><u>Consider</u></h2>

$\rm \: \cos \bigg( \dfrac{3\pi}{2} + x \bigg) \cos \: (2\pi + x) \bigg \{ \cot \bigg( \dfrac{3\pi}{2} - x \bigg) + cot(2\pi + x) \bigg \}cos(23π+x)cos(2π+x)$

$\rm \: \cos \bigg( \dfrac{3\pi}{2} + x \bigg) = sinx$

$\rm \: {cos \: (2\pi + x) }$

$\rm \: \cot \bigg( \dfrac{3\pi}{2} - x \bigg) \: = \: tanx$

$\rm \: cot(2\pi + x) \: = \: cotx$

So, on substituting all these values, we get

$\rm \: = \: sinx \: cosx \: (tanx \: + \: cotx)$

$\rm \: = \: sinx \: cosx \: \bigg(\dfrac{sinx}{cosx} + \dfrac{cosx}{sinx}$

$\rm \: = \: sinx \: cosx \: \bigg(\dfrac{ {sin}^{2}x + {cos}^{2}x}{cosx \: sinx}$

$\rm \: = \: 1=1$

<h2>Hence,</h2>

$\boxed{\tt{ \cos \bigg( \frac{3\pi}{2} + x \bigg) \cos \: (2\pi + x) \bigg \{ \cot \bigg( \frac{3\pi}{2} - x \bigg) + cot(2\pi + x) \bigg \} = 1}}$

If 5% sales tax is added to her total, what is the greatest total cost of groceries Darla can spend in order to spend as close t

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Approximately $14.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the groceries be represented by c, then;

cost price + VAT = c + (5% of c)

To get the value of the cost, c, that would make him spend as close to $15. Since the tax is 5% of the cost price, then the cost price would be close to $15.

Let c = $14.20, then;

So that,

c + (5% of c) = 14.20 + (5% of 14.20)

= 14.20 + 0.71

= $14.91

Thus, the greatest total cost of groceries Darla can spend in order to spend as close to $15 as possible is approximately $14.20.

A rectangle has an area of 36 inches squared. Write an equation to show how the length (l) varies inversely the width (w).

Anastaziya [24]

Start with the first sentence, and the definition of the area of a rectangle:
l * w = 36

Rewrite the equation to get
l = 36 / w
or
w = 36 / l
Either one shows the inverse relationship between w and l.

Assuming the last part wants you to write an equation for an x-y graph, the equation would be
y = 36 / x

A homeowner has an octagonal gazebo inside a circular area. Each vertex of the gazebo lies on the circumference of the circular

Tcecarenko [31]

If we draw the diagonals of the octagonal gazebo, the 4 diagonals divide the octagon into 8 triangles.

Note that each triangle is an isosceles triangle whose equal sides are x, the radius of the circle.

The top angle of each triangle is obtained by dividing the full angle by 8.

So, each top angle = $\frac{360}{8}$
