Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.
As we can see from the diagram,
RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill
PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill
SR= h=height of the statue
=Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.
= which is unknown.
Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in :
Which gives to be:
Now, we know that and can be added to give us the complete angle in the right triangle .
We can again use the tan trigonometric ratio in to solve for the height of the statue, h.
This can be done as:
Thus, the height of the statue is approximately, 8.45 feet.
Answer:
2 sets I think
Step-by-step explanation:
what are the answer choices
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
= > x² + ( 4 + 3 )x + 12 = 12
= > x² + 4x + 3x + 12 = 12
= > x( x + 4 ) + 3( x + 4 ) = 12
= > ( x + 4 ) ( x + 3 ) = 12
Percy did correct till this step. But by doing like this, Percy can't get the values of the variable x.
Percy should follow the following steps :
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
Add -12 on both sides,
= > x² + 7x + 12 - 12 = 12 - 12
= > x² + 7x = 0
= > x( x + 7 ) = 0
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x + 7 = 0 )
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x = - 7 )
Hence, required value(s) of x is 0 or -7
I think that will be the answer and the graph i take it for leter
Here is a saying 5 and above give it a shove (round up) 4 and below go down low (round down). In your case you would leave it the same, because when rounding you would round to the nearest 10th.
Example:
54 would round down to 50 and 55 would be rounded up to 60.
