Answer:

The measure of the angle between the kite string and the ground is 72.54°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A kite with a 100 foot-long string is caught in a tree. When the full length of the string is stretched in a straight line to the ground, it touches the ground a distance of 30 feet from the bottom of the tree.

To find : The measure of the angle between the kite string and the ground.

Solution :

Refer the attached figure.

In a right angle ΔABC,

A kite with a 100 foot-long string is caught in a tree.

i.e, AC=100 ft.

Length of the string touches the ground a distance of 30 feet from the bottom of the tree.

i.e, BC=30 ft.

We have to find the angle C between the kite string and the ground.

Apply trigonometric function,

\cos\theta=\frac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

\cos\theta=\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{AC}}

\cos\theta=\frac{30}{100}

\cos\theta=0.3

\theta=\cos^{-1}(0.3)

\theta=72.54^\circ

Therefore, The measure of the angle between the kite string and the ground is 72.54°.

Hyp=100,adj side=30

angle=cos^{-1}(30/100)

A study of the effects of color on easing anxiety compared anxiety test scores of participants who completed the test printed on
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

H0 : μYellow = μGreen

H1 : μYellow < μGreen

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Yellow paper = μYellow

Green paper = μGreen

To test the hypothesis :

The null hypothesis is will state that there is no difference in mean of anxiety scores obtained for test taken of yellow and green papers

H0 : μYellow = μGreen.

The alternative hypothesis is the opposite of the null and it is to the left, where we want to test if the anxiety score is lower when take on a yellow paper

H1 : μYellow < μGreen

Can someone please help me with 1 to 2 please . With explanation. And how you got the answers
Neko [114]

So, the rate per 7 minutes is 7:196

To find the unit rate (how many spins per minute) we need to divide the 196 by 7.

196/7 = 28

The unit rate is 1:28

At this rate, the unicycle makes 420 revolutions per 15 minutes. We find this by 28 * 15 = 420.
