<h3>What are trigonometric ratios?</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are defined as the ratio of different sides of a right angle triangle with respect to one angle of the right angled triangle.

Length of the wire = Hypotenuse of the triangle =  X

Base of the triangle = Distance from the bottom of the tower to the point where wire is attached on ground = 20 m

Angle b/w Hypotenuse and Base of triangle = 46°

cos(θ) = Base / Hypotenuse

cos(46) = 20 / X

X = 20 / cos(46)

X = 28.79 m

Hence, the length of the wire is 28.79 m.

How do you the equation of the line that passes through point (-3,2) and is parallel to the line formed by the equation y = 4x +
hjlf

Answer:

y = 4x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 4x + 7 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 12 = 14

y = 4x + 14 ← equation of parallel line

-5(t + 6) + 7t = 100
Mila [183]
Use distribution
-5t - 30 + 7t = 100
Combine like terms
2t - 30 = 100
Add 30 to both sides
2t = 130, t = 65
Solution: t = 65
