Answer:

221.7 ft (nearest tenth).

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation can be modeled as a right triangle where the base is the distance between the observer (O) and the building (B), and the height is the distance between the base of the building (B) and the kite (K).

To find the <u>height of the kite</u>, use the tan trigonometric ratio.

<u>Tan trigonometric ratio</u>

\sf \tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}

where:

  • \theta is the angle
  • O is the side opposite the angle
  • A is the side adjacent the angle

Given values:

  • \theta = 29°
  • O = h
  • A = OB = 400 ft

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for h:

\implies \sf \tan(29^{\circ})=\dfrac{h}{400}

\implies \sf h=400\tan(29^{\circ})

\implies \sf h=221.7236206...

Therefore, the height of the kite flying over the building is 221.7 ft (nearest tenth).

For Tran thank you appreciate it
Anestetic [448]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let alpha be the unknown angle. We can set up our sine law as follows:

\frac{ \sin( \alpha ) }{5 \: m}  =  \frac{ \sin(42) }{3.6 \: m }

or

\sin( \alpha )  =  \frac{5 \: m}{3.6 \: m} \times  \sin(42)  = 0.929

Solving for alpha,

\alpha  = arcsin(0.929) = 68 \: degrees

If the perimeter of Triangle XYZ is 56 cm, what is the perimeter of Triangle ABC?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is obtained by joining the mid points of the sides of triangle XYZ.

So, perimeter of triangle ABC will be equal to half of the perimeter of triangle XYZ.

P(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times P(\triangle XYZ)

P(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 56

P(\triangle ABC) = 28\: cm

How do you graph inverse functions?
balu736 [363]
A function and its inverse are reflected over the line y = x. To graph a function and its inverse, all you have to do is graph the function and then switch all x and y values in each point to graph the inverse.
