Boy is 22.5 feet high from the ground

The six trigonometric ratios are sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), cosecant (cosec), and secant (sec). In geometry, trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the sides and angles of a right-angled triangle. Therefore, trig ratios are evaluated with respect to sides and angles.

The given question can be solved by sin, as value of perpendicular is to be evaluated and height and angle is provided. Let height from the ground be x

sin(22.5°) = x / 58

x = 58sin22.5 = 58(.38258) = 22.5 feet high.

Thus the Boy is 22.5 feet high from the ground.

a farmer wants to fence in three sides of a rectangular field shown below with 960 feet of fencing. The other side of the rectan

Answer:

240 ft by 480 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is maximized when the long side is half the total length of the fence. That makes the short side (out from the river) be half the length of the long side.

The fenced field dimensions are 240 feet by 480 feet.

You can let x represent the length of the long side. Then the length of the short side is half the remaining fence: (960 -x)/2.

The total area is the product of these dimensions:

A = x(960 -x)/2

We note that this is the equation of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=960. The maximum will be found on the line of symmetry, halfway between the zeros. That is at x = (0 +960)/2 = 480.

The area is maximized for a long-side dimension of 480 feet. The short sides are 240 feet.
