Answer: The tall cliff is 118.20 feet tall and the short cliff is 70.32 feet tall.
If you draw a picture with 2 cliffs and a river in the middle, you have find 2 right triangles. In each triangle the adjacent side to our known angle is the river of 90 feet. And the unknown side is the opposite leg.
Therefore, we can set up a tangent equation.
From the top of the short cliff to the top of the tall cliff, we can right and solve the following trig equation:
tan(28) = x /90
x = 47.88
From the top of the short cliff to the bottom, we can right and solve the following trip equation.
tan(38) = x/90
x = 70.32
The 70.32 is also the height of the short cliff. And adding the two answers together will give you the height of the tall cliff.
The long answer is <span>28.571428%, but I would round it upwards to make it seem more realistic.</span>
Answer:
option 2.
m1 = 75 , m2 = 129 , m3 = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
with the rule that the internal angles of a triangle add up to 180 ° we can calculate the missing angles
x + 46 + 29 = 180
x = 180 - 46 -29
x = 105
a flat angle has 180 °
m1 + 105 = 180
m1 = 180 - 105
m1 = 75
46 + 54 + y = 180
y = 180 - 46 -54
y = 80
80 = z + 29
z = 80 - 29
z = 51
as they are two crossed lines the angle is reflected from the opposite side
with that principle and knowing that the angle of a turn is 360 °, if we subtract the 2 known angles and divide it by 2 we will obtain the missing angle (m2)
m2 * 2 = 360 - 51 * 2
m2 = 258/2
m2 = 129
m2 = 29 + m3
129 = 29 + m3
m3 = 129 - 29
m3 = 100
