X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B

3*-6 to -18 (7-4-18)
Answer:
NO
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite numbers are the same distance from 0 on the number line, but in opposite directions. Steps I would follow:
first, check the directions to make sure they are opposite,
then read the digits, or count the tick marks or compare lengths with dividers or ruler or marks on a piece of paper to see if the distances are the same.
3 is not the opposite of -6
Therefore 6 is the opposite of -6
