For this case we can use the following trigonometric relationship:
 tan (x) = C.O / C.A
 Where,
 x: angle (elevation of the sun)
 C.O: opposite leg (height of the tower)
 C.A: Adjacent Leg (shadow of the tower)
 Clearing we have:
 C.O = C.A * tan (x)
 Substituting values:
 h = 60 * tan (65)
 h = 128.67 feet
 Answer:
 
the tower is 128.67 feet tall

A two-factor research study has 2 levels of factor A and 3 levels of factor B with a separate sample of n = 5 subjects in each t
amid [387]

Answer:

option (b) df = 1, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

levels of factor A, a = 2

levels of factor B, b = 3

Subjects in each Sample, s = 5

n = 5 × 3 × 2 = 30

Now

df for Factor A = a - 1

= 2 - 1

= 1

df for Factor B = b - 1

= 3 - 1

= 2

df for Interaction AB = ( a - 1 ) × ( b - 1 )

= 1  × 2

= 2

df for Total = n - 1

= 30 - 1

= 29

df for error = 29 - 5

= 24

Hence,

df values for the F-ratio evaluating the main effect of factor A is 1, 24

The correct answer is option (b) df = 1, 24

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 triangles are similar hence the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{x}{5} = \frac{40}{8} = 5

multiply both sides by 5

x = 5 × 5 = 25

The height of the tree is 25 ft
