The tangent or tanθ in a right-angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. The distance from point C to point D is 258.8 meters.

<h3>What is Tangent (Tanθ)?</h3>

The tangent or tanθ in a right-angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,

\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

The base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.

The distance from point C to D is equal to the distance from point A to B. Therefore, the height of the building can be written as,

Tan(25°) = AB / BC

Tan(25°) × 555 m = AB

AB = 258.8 meters

Hence, the distance from point C to point D is 258.8 meters.

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

14 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Groupings = \frac{1}{2}\ day

Duration = 1\ week

Required

Determine the number of group in the week

To do this, we simply divide the duration by the number half day group.

This gives:

Group = \frac{Duration}{Groupings}

Group = \frac{1\ week}{1/2\ days}

Convert week to days

Group = \frac{7\ days}{1/2\ days}

Group = \frac{7}{1/2}

Group = 7 / \frac{1}{2}

Convert to multiplication

Group = 7 * \frac{2}{1}

Group = \frac{14}{1}

Group = 14

<em>Hence, there are 14 groups</em>

A coral reef grows
Ksenya-84 [330]
If a coral reef grows at a steady rate every week, then to find how much it grows in 12 weeks, we need to multiply the growth rate by 12 weeks. Also, since we want our answer in centimeters, we can change the growth rate to centimeters. 0.15m = 15cm

15cm * 12 = 180cm

The coral reef will grow 180cm in 12 weeks.
