The rise from the ground by the skateboard is 5.5 inches

<h3>How to determine the height above the ground?</h3>

The length of the skateboard is given as:

Length (l) = 18 inches

The angle of elevation (x) is

x = 17∘

Represent the height with h.

The value of h is calculated using the following tangent ratio:

tan(x) = h/l

Make h the subject

h = l * tan(x)

Substitute known values

h = 18 * tan(17)

Evaluate

h = 5.5

Hence, the rise from the ground by the skateboard is 5.5 inches

On a town map, each unit of the coordinate plane represents 1 mile. Three branches of a bank are located at A(−3, 1), B(1, 4), a
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The distance between Branch A and Branch B is given by the Pythagoras theorem

AB² = (Vertical Distance)² + (Horizontal Distance)²
AB² = (4-1)² + (1 - -3)²
AB² = 3² + 4²
AB² = 9 + 16
AB² = 25
AB = 5

BC² = (Vertical distance)² + (Horizontal distance)²
BC² = (-2 - 4)² + (5-1)²
BC² = (-6)² + (4)²
BC² = 36 + 16
BC² = 52
BC = 7.21

Half way of BC = 7.21 ÷ 2 = 3.6 miles

Total distance travelled from A to B and then halfway from B to C is 3.6+5 = 8.6 miles
