In construction, the precision used to build a structure directly influences the strength of the structure. In the Rocky Mountai

ns, many houses’ roofs are built using trusses, which are strong enough to support the heavy load from snow, but light enough to build in a stockyard and transport to the construction site. Chris works in the stockyard. He has been told he needs to build a series of trusses for a new house using the pattern below. He has also been told the pattern may be inaccurate—so he needs to check and make sure Describe the angles you would need to know to verify that BC¯, DE¯, and FG¯ are all parallel to each other, and CD¯, EF¯, and GH¯ are also parallel.
What could be an appropriate measure for ∠CDE? Be prepared to explain your choice for that angle. Use that measure to find all other angles involved.

An appropriate measure for ∠CDE would be

∠CDE = ∠ADE - ∠ADC

<h3>How to check for the appropriate measure of CDE.</h3>

we have the following angles as parallel BC¯, DE¯, and FG¯ also  CD¯, EF¯, and GH¯.

The angles that we have to check in order to measure would be

∠ABC, ∠AEG, ∠ADC, ∠AHG, ∠ADE, ∠AFE, ∠AHG.

Is, “What is your favorite color?” A statistical question? Why or why not?
nignag [31]

Answer:

This is a statistical question because to answer this question, you would collect data by asking students about their favorite colors, and there would be variability in the data. The favorite color would not be the same for every student

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The equation of line is: \mathbf{4x-3y=-18}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and  (-3, 2)?

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: y=mx+b

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have x_1=-6,y_1=-2, x_2=-3, y_2=2

Putting values and finding slope

Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{2+2}{-3+6} \\Slope=\frac{4}{3}

So, we get slope: m=\frac{4}{3}

Finding y-intercept

Using point (-6,-2) and slope m=\frac{4}{3} we can find y-intercept

y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{4}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=4(-2)+b\\-2=-8+b\\b=-2+8\\b=6

So, we get y-intercept b= 6

Equation of required line

The equation of required line having slope m=\frac{4}{3} and y-intercept b = 6 is

y=mx+b\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+6

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

y=\frac{4x+6*3}{3} \\y=\frac{4x+18}{3} \\3y=4x+18\\4x-3y=-18

So, the equation of line is: \mathbf{4x-3y=-18}

One of the tallest buildings in a country is topped by a high antenna. The angle of elevation from the position of a surveyor on
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a. distance of the surveyor to the base of the building = 2051.90 ft

b. height of the building = 1384 ft

c. Angle of elevation from the surveyor to the top of the antenna = 38.31°

d. Height of antenna  =  237.08 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

​The picture above is a illustration of the described event.

a = the height of the flag

b = the height of the building

c = distance of the surveyor from the base of the building

the angle of elevation from the position of the surveyor on the ground to the top of the building = 34°  

distance from her position to the top of the building  = 2475 ft

distance from her position to the top of the flag  = 2615 ft

​(a) How far away from the base of the building is the surveyor​ located?​

using the SOHCAHTOA principle

cos 34° = c/2475

c =  0.8290375726  × 2475

c = 2051.8679921

c = 2051.90 ft

(b) How tall is the​ building

The height of the building = b

sin 34° = opposite /hypotenuse

0.5591929035 = b/2475

b =  0.5591929035  × 2475

b =  1384.0024361

b =  1384.00 ft

​(c) What is the angle of elevation from the surveyor to the top of the​ antenna?

let the angle = ∅

cos ∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos ∅ = 2051.90/2615

cos ∅ =  0.784665392

∅ = cos-1  0.784665392

∅ =   38.310258303

∅ =  38.31°

​(d) How tall is the​ antenna?

height of the antenna = a

sin 38.31° = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 38.31° = (a + b)/2615

sin 38.31° × 2615 = (a + b)

(a + b) =  0.6199159917  × 2615

(a + b) =  1621.0803182

(a + b) = 1621. 08 ft

Height of antenna = 1621. 08 - 1384.00  =  237.08031822 ft

Height of antenna  =  237.08 ft

Olegator [25]

Answer:

  10/13 ≈ 76.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A∪B) = P(A) +P(B) -P(A∩B)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball)

   = P(plays basketball) +P(plays baseball) -P(plays both)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball) = 16/26 +9/26 -5/26 = 20/26 = 10/13

P(plays basketball or baseball) = 10/13 ≈ 76.9%
