Is there a diagram I can look at?
2 because 8 divided by 4 is 2.
Answer:
52feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The set up will be a right angle
Let the angle of depression be 30°
The height above the sea level will be the opposite
The distance of the ship from the base is x (adjacent)
Using TOA
Tan theta = opposite/adjacent
Tan 30 = 30/x
x = 30/tan 30
x = 30/0.5774
x = 51.96
x ≈ 52 feet to the nearest foot
Given : A = 24 sq feet
A = 0.5 base x height
base = x , height = x+2
A = 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 sq feet
1) 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 (A)
2) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (D)
To check the rest un-wrap the bracket:
x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 24
x^2 + x^2 + 4 + 4x = 24
2x^2 + 4x - 20 = 0
x^2 + 2x - 10= 0 (NO)
Likewise:
x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 100
x^2 + x^2 +4 + 4x = 100
2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 100
2x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0
3) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (F)
To sum up: that's what apply:
1) 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 (A)
2) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (D)
3) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (F)
309× 29 = 8,961 is totally answer
