Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle triangle is formed.

The length of the guy wire represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The height of the antenna represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

The distance, h from base of the antenna to the point on the ground to which the antenna is attached represents the adjacent side of the triangle.

To determine h, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

41² = 32.8² + h²

1681 = 1075.84 + h²

h² = 1681 - 1075.84 = 605.16

h = √605.16

h = 24.6 m

To determine the angle θ that the wire makes with the ground, we would apply the the cosine trigonometric ratio.

Cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Cos θ = 24.6/41 = 0.6

θ = Cos^-1(0.6)

θ = 53.1°

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

377 meals

Step-by-step explanation:

If you choose to have all three courses, then there are 6 choices for the first course, 8 for the second, and 5 for the last, making a total of 6*8*5=240 different possible meals.

If you choose two courses, then there are 3 options. You can pick appetizer and main meal, which would give you 6*8=48 possibilities. You can pick main meal and dessert, which would give you 8*5=40 possibilities. Finally you can pick appetizer and desert, which would give you 6*5=30 possibilities. In total these are 118 different possible meals with two courses.

Finally, you could choose 1 course, which would give you 6+8+5=19 different meals.

In total, this is 240+118+19=377 meals

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Z = (x-µ)/(s/√n)=(98.5-98.2)/(0.62/√19) = 2.11

left tail p-value = 0.9826

so 98.26% are lower.
