You have an angle of elevation of 3 degrees and you're 2000 ft from base of 30 story building. 
<span>Draw a picture of this. Then tan(3) = ht of bldg/2000 </span>
<span>I get a height of 104.82 ft rounded to 2 dp. </span>


<span>5. Ok. use the Pythagorean Theorem here to find the hypotenuse of the right triangle </span>
<span>hypt = sqrt(50^2 + 9^2) </span>
<span>Now sine of the angle of elevation is 50/hypt. = 0.984 or 0.98 to 2 dp.</span>

serg [7]

Answer:

2255.31 cu.m

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Given radius r = 6.5m

Height h = 17m

Volume = π × 6.5²×17

Volume = 3.14×6.5²×17

Volume of the cylinder = 2255.31cu.m

trapecia [35]

Answer:

708meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Lenght = 274meters

Width= 80 meters

The expression for the perimeter is

P= 2L+2W

substitute

P= 2*274+ 2*80

P= 548+160

P= 708 meters

Hence the perimeter of the block is 708meters

The answer is a. 1/7
The length of QR is 3 sqrt(2) which means half of that is where the median intersects. Since the triangle formed is a right triangle with legs that are equal. The vertex angles are 45°, we can get the coordinates of the point of intersection which is (4.5,3.5).
So, 
m (slope) = (3.5-3)/(4.5-1) = 1/7
