The angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36°.

We are given that:

The sun from the ground to the top of a tree when a tree that is 10 yards tall casts a shadow 14 yards long.

Now by using the trigonometric identity .

tan θ = P / B

As figure is  given below .

AB =  Perpendicular = 10 yards

BC =  Base = 14 yards

Putting all the values in the trigonometric identity .

tan θ = 10 / 14

θ = 36°

Therefore, the angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36°.

what is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (2, 3) ? a. x + 2y = 4 b. x + 2
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

see explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

The given blue line has a slope of m = -1/2.

The line parallel to the given line passing through point (x0,y0)=(2,3) is given by the point-slope form:

(y-y0)=m(x-x0)

substitute values

(y-3) = (-1/2)(x-2)

Expand and transpose

y = (-1/2)x + 1 + 3

y = (-1/2)x + 4  ....................(1)

We choose the second equation b. x+2y=8 and convert to slope-intercept form:

2y=-x+8

y = (-1/2)x + 4, which is exactly equation (1)

So

b. x+2y=8 is the correct answer.
