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.

3. Gavin deposited $1500 into his savings account that is compounded quarterly at an interest rate of 1.5%. How much money will
wolverine [178]

Answer:

\$1,616.60  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that    

The compound interest formula is equal to  

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

A is the Final Investment Value  

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

t=5\ years\\ P=\$1,500\\ r=1.5\%=1.5/100=0.015\\n=4  

substitute in the formula above  

A=1,500(1+\frac{0.015}{4})^{4*5}  

A=1,500(1.00375)^{20}  

A=\$1,616.60
