The plane figure formed by the ground, the guy wire, and the tree is a right triangle with the hypotenuse equal to length of the guy wire. The angle given is an angle adjacent to 3.5 ft. Therefore, the most suitable trigonometric function for this is,
                                  cos (50°) = adjacent / hypotenuse
                                   cos 50° = 3.5 ft / hypotenuse
The value of the hypotenuse is 5.445 ft. 
Hence, the length of the guy wire is approximately 5.445 ft.

What is 72 x 1/4?<br>I have no clue!​
Dovator [93]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Honestly you can just use a calculator for this.

But if you want to know how to actually do it, multiplying something by a fraction is just dividing it by its reciprocal (just flipping the numerator and the denominator).

Therefore...

72/4 is 18, 72 x 1/4 = 18

What is the period of the function y=3(tan 6x)?
Ostrovityanka [42]
With all trig functions, the period can be calculated with the equation PB = 2π.

P = period 
B = anything in the tangent part of the equation except the x. (in this case, it would be 6)

When we plug in 6 for B, we get 6P = 2π.

Divide both sides by 6 and you get P = 2π / 6

OR

P = π/3
