The angle the beam makes with the pool surface is 29.72°.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

The spotlight and surface of a swimming pool makes a 90 degree angle.

Spotlight stand is 3m (Opposite)

Beam of light hits the water 7m away from the base of light (base)

Angle = ?

<u>Use sin to solve</u>

Formula:

Tan (Angle) = \frac{Opposite}{Base}

Solution:

Sin (Angle) = \frac{3}{7}

Angle = tan^{-1} (0.571)

Angle = 29.72°

Therefore, the angle the beam makes with the pool surface is 29.72°.

A rectangular building with a square base is being designed to minimize heat loss. The building designers state that the volume
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

y = 4000/x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the building is expressed as;

V = x²y where;

x is the length and width of the base.

y is the height of the building

Given

Volume V = 4000m³

Substitute the given volume into the equation as shown;

4000 = x²y

Make y the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by x²

4000/x² = x²y/x²

4000/x² = y

Rearrange

y = 4000/x²

Hence equation for y, the height of the building, in terms of x, the length and width of the base is expressed as y = 4000/x²
