Answer:

  18°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines tells you ...

  a² = b² + c² -2bc·cos(A)

Solve for cos(A) and fill in the numbers. Note that the value of cos(A) is very close to 1, so the angle will be fairly small. This by itself can steer you to the correct answer.

  cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (49 +100 -16)/(2·7·10) = 133/140

  A = arccos(133/140) ≈ 18.2° ≈ 18°

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

\frac{inches}{minute}

Change the feet to minutes by multiplying by 12, and change the hour to minutes.

Speedy: \frac{240}{60}

Slowpoke: \frac{80}{30}

Cleo: \frac{96}{10}

Speedy is the fastest.

\frac{feet}{hour}

  • Speedy: \frac{20}{1}
  • Slowpoke: \frac{\frac{6.666666667}{.5}}{30}
  • Cleo: \frac{8}{\frac{1}{6}}

Change minutes to feet by dividing and change the minutes to hours by multiplying.

densk [106]

Answer:

The value of height of the building  h = 509.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Δ A B C

\tan 25 = \frac{h}{y}

⇒ h = y \tan 25°  ------- (1)

From Δ A B D

\tan 20 = \frac{h}{y + 300}

⇒ h = ( y + 300 ) \tan20° ------- (2)

Equation 1 = Equation 2

⇒ y \tan 25° = ( y + 300 ) \tan20°

⇒ 0.46 y = 0.36 y + 109.2

⇒ 0.1 y = 109.2

⇒ y = 1092 feet

Put this value of y in equation ( 1 ) we get,

⇒ h = 1092 × tan 25°

⇒ h = 509.2 feet

This is the value of height of the building.
