The scale model of a building 3 inches tall if the building is 90 feet tall is 2:5

<h3>Scaling of measurement</h3>

Scaling is the way of enlarging or reducing the image of an object.

Given scale model of a building is 3 inches, if the building is 90feet tall, to write the scale;

Convert both measures to same units

Since 1 feet. = 12 in

90 feet = 90/12 in = 7.5 in

Take the ratio

3 : 7.5 = 30: 75

Reduce to lowest term

30: 75 = 2 : 5

Hence the scale model of a building 3 inches tall if the building is 90 feet tall is 2:5

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

180= 90 + 57 + Z

Z = 180 - 90 - 57

Z = 33

33 = 7X + 19

7X = 33 - 19

7X = 14

X = 2

A support wire is attached to the top of a tower that is 65 feet tall as shown. If the wire makes an angle of 34 degree with the
Maru [420]
Answer:
length of wire = 116 ft

Explanation:
The attached image shows a diagram on the scenario given.

Now, we can note that the string forms a right-angled triangle with the tower and the ground. This means that special trig functions can be applied.
These functions are as follows:
sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan θ = opposite / adjacent

Now, from the given, we can find that:
θ = 34°
opposite is the tower = 65 ft
hypotenuse is the string length that we want to find

Substitute with the givens in the sin function to get the length of string as follows:
sin (34) = 65 / string
string = 65 / sin(34)
string = 116.2 which is approximately 116 ft

Hope this helps :)

[2.4–(0.3–3.21)÷2+0.44÷(−2)]÷ 2/5
netineya [11]

Answer:9.0875

Step-by-step explanation:

[2.4–(0.3–3.21)÷2+0.44÷(−2)]÷ 2/5=

[4.8:2-(-2.91):2-0.44:2]:2/5=

=[(4.8+2.91-0.44):2]*5/2=

=[(7.71-0.44):2]*5/2=

=(7.27:2)*5/2=(7.27*5):(2*2)=

=36.35:4=9.0875
