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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Semester Costs = 8*2858 =                     22864

Books / semester= 8 * 391 =                        <u>3128</u>

Total                                                            25992

If he wants to repay all this in six years the answer would be

45000 + 25992/6 = 45000 + 4332 = 49332

DiKsa [7]
Simplest way to do this:
 number of books= 120
 percentage represented by 120= 100%
 increase current percent by 55%= 155%

: . 55% increase = original number of books * (155%)
                           = 120 * (155/100)
                           = 186

Area of square = 24cm²
⇒ Length = √24 

Find the diagonal of half the square:
a² + b² = c²
c² = (0.5√24)² + (√24)²
c² = 6 + 24
c² = 30
c = √30

The diagonal of half of the square is the radius of the circle.
⇒ radius = √30

Area of the semicircle = 1/2πr² = 1/2π(√30)² =15π

Answer: 15π²
