Based on the maximum taxable amount for social security in 2009, and the social security tax rate, the social security tax that Larry paid was $7,347.
<h3>How much did Larry pay in social security taxes?</h3>
The total amount paid by Larry as Social security tax can be found as;
= Maximum amount allowable for social security tax x Social security tax rate
The social security tax rate was 6.2% not 62.2%.
The social security tax was therefore:
= 118,500 x 6.2%
= $7,347

If sides are congruent then the angles ACROSS from them are also congruent.
Since WV and VU are congruent, angle U is congruent to angle W.
Set up an equation and solve.
See attachment.
x = 8
Angle w = 63
Answer:
The bird has to fly 7.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see diagram in attached image.
Notice that there is a right angle triangle that defines the situation, and you know two elements of such triangle;
1) one acute angle (
), and
2) the side opposite to that angle.
What you need to find is the side adjacent to the angle, which is what the bird needs to fly horizontally to be above the fish. We named that "x".
The trig function that relates such triangle elements is the tangent:

which rounded to the nearest tenth is: 7.5 m
