The Sine or Sin(θ) in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse. The Height on the wall till which the ladder reaches is 21.148 ft.

<h3>What is Sine (Sinθ)?</h3>

The Sine or Sin(θ) in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse. it is given as,

Sin(θ) = Perpendicular/Hypotenuse

where,

θ is the angle,

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

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle.


The height of the wall can be found by using the trigonometry ratios, therefore, the height of the wall can be determined as,

Sin(74°) = (Height on the wall)/(Length of the wall)

Sin(74°) = (Height on the wall)/22 ft

(Height on the wall) = 21.148 ft

Hence, the Height on the wall till which the ladder reaches is 21.148 ft.

Dan invests £1300 into his bank account.
alexandr402 [8]

Given parameters:

Principal  = £1300

Interest rate  = 5%

Duration  = 2yrs

Unknown:

Total amount of Dan's principal = ?

To solve this problem, we apply the equation below:

  Total investment worth  = Principal + interest

   Interest  = \frac{PRT}{100}

where P is the principal

          R is the rate

          T is the time

Now, input the parameters;

     Total investment worth  = £1300 + £ \frac{1300 x 5 x 2}{100}

                                             = £1300 + £130

                                             = £1430

The amount after two years is £1430

What is 3/8 plus 1/12
Delvig [45]
first what you have to do you have to find the common denominator which is 24
it's 24 because 8 times 3 equals 24 and 12 times 2 equals 24 so they have a like denominator so what you have to do to the bottom you have to do to the top so 8 times 3 is 24 so 3 times 3 is 9 so the new fraction is 9/24. Then 1/12 12×2=24 and 1×2= 2 so the new fraction is 2/24. that would leave you with the problem of 9/24 + 2/24 which is 11/ 24
