Every weekend me and my brother and my cousin go outside to play basketball and when i was the one who will shoot the ball to th

e ring i used the things i learned in math so I use SOH-CAH-TOA in measuring it. I want to measure the distance between me and the basketball ring. Supposed the height of the ring is 8ft from the ground and the distance between me and the basketball ring horizontally is 11.5 ft, and the angle of elevation from the ground is 50 degrees, now what is the distance of me and the ring?
Let x be the distance between me and the ring

need urgent answers with equation

Answer:

10.433cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using SOH from TOACAHSOH,

sin50deg =  \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

From here we know there the opposite is 8ft (height of the ring) and hypotenuse is what we want to find, distance between you and the ring.

sin(50) =  \frac{8}{x}  \\ x \sin(50) = 8 \\ x =  \frac{8}{ \sin(50) }   \\ x = 10.443cm(rounded \: to \: 5sf)

The diameter of the moon is about 3500 km. Approximate the surface area of the moon using the formula for the surface area of a
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

3.8465 *10^7 square kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a sphere can be found using the formula SA=4\pi r^2. Since the diameter is 3500 km then its radius is half of this. 3500 divided in two is 1,750 units. Substitute r=1,750.

SA=4\pi r^2\\SA = 4 \pi (1750)^2\\SA = 4 \pi *3,062,500\\SA =38,465,000

The surface area of the moon is about 38,465,000 square kilometers. Write this is scientific notation using base. 3.8465 *10^7

Hmm, (x,y)
x is horizontal or left right
y is vertical or up down


so

we see that A to F is move left 2 and down 5
B to G is left 2 and down 5
C to H is left 2 and down 5


so translatete ABC left 2 and down 5 and
translate FGH right 2 and up 5

not 1st option
2nd works
3rd works
4th is false


2nd and 3rd
