Answer:
≈ 82 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use Pythagoras' identity to calculate distance (d)
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
Here the hypotenuse is the distance (d) between the 2 poles, hence
d² = 80² + 45² = 6400 + 2025 = 8425 ( take the square root of both sides )
d = 
≈ 82 feet ( to the nearest foot )
Answer:
7.6m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the time the Olympian swam
Speed=distance/time ⇒⇒Time=distance/speed
Distance=200m , speed= 1.8m/s t= 200/1.8 = 111.11 seconds
Find the speed of the Olympic runner
Distance=200m time = 21.3 sec
s=200/21.3 = 9.4 m/s
Difference in speed= 9.4-1.8= 7.6m/s
Answer:
60.25≈60.3°
Step-by-step explanation:
tanФ=14/8=1.75
Ф=arctan=1.75
tan-1
60.25≈60.3
