Answer:
56.4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent of the angle relates the opposite side (height above the window) to the adjacent side (distance between buildings) in the right triangle that models this geometry.
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(35°) = (height above window)/(distance between buildings)
height above window = (52 ft)tan(35°) ≈ 36.4 ft
Added to the window height of 20 ft, the height of the other building is ...
20 ft + 36.4 ft = 56.4 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider that by changing the the variable x with x-c represents a horizontal shift of c units. If c>0 then it is a right shift and it is a left shift otherwise. When we multiply the variable by a number d (i.e dx) we are applying an horizontal compression/stretching. If d>1 it compresses it, and if 0<d<1 it stretches it. By multipyling the variable x by a negative sign, we are reflecting with respect the x -axis. Finally when we add a number to the function, we are applying a vertical shift.
original function x.
1. (x-7): horizontal shift of 7 units to the right.
2. 1/3(x-7): Horizontal stretching by factor 1/3.
3.-1/3(x-7): Reflection with respect the x-axis
4.-1/3(x-7)+2: Vertical shift of two units up.
