The height of the taller building is 18.6 meters

<h3>How to find the side of a right triangle?</h3>

A right triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. The side of a right angle triangle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

Therefore, the height of the taller building is the sum of the height of the smaller building and upper part of the taller building.

tan 53 = opposite / adjacent

tan 53 = x / 10

cross multiply

x = 10 tan 53

x = 10 × 1.32704482162

x = 13.2704482162

x = 13.3 m

tan 28 = y / 10

y = 10 tan 28

y = 5.31709431661

y = 5.3

Therefore, the height of the taller building is 13.3 + 5.3 = 18.6 meters.

Ending time 6:30, elapsed time 37 minutes
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

5:53

Step-by-step explanation:

The original time would be 37 minutes before 6:30 so you would subtract 37 minutes from 6;30. So 6:30 minus 30 would be 6 and you would have 7 left over so 6:00 minus 7 minutes would be 5:53

Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 2 inches, and the larger gear has a ra
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Let r represent the radius of the smaller circle and R the radius of the larger circle.

Apply ratios: the radius of smaller circle to radius of larger circle, i.e.

r: R = 3 : 7.

I complete rotation = 360 degrees.

Part 1:

For one complete rotation of the smaller circle, the larger circle is rotated through: (3/7)*(360) = 154.3 degrees

Part 2:

For one complete rotation of the larger circle, the larger circle is rotated through: (7/3)*(360) = 840.0 degrees

This is equivalent to (840/360) = 2.3 rotations

Alternatively, use the ratios:

The number of rotations = R/r = 7/3 = 2.3 rotations
