Answer:

The answer to your question is 79 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length = 100 ft

angle = 52°

Process

To solve this problem use trigonometric functions. The trigonometric function we are going to use is sine because it relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

sin Ф = Opposite side / Hypotenuse

-Solve for Opposite side

Opposite side = hypotenuse x sinФ

-Substitution

Opposite side = 100 sin 52

-Simplification

Opposite side = 100 (0.79)

-Result

Opposite side = 78.8 ≈ 79 ft

From the observation deck of a skyscraper, Harper measures a 45^{\circ} ∘ angle of depression to a ship in the harbor below. If

Evgesh-ka [11]

The horizontal distance between the base of the skyscraper to the ship is 1145 feet.

Data;

Angle = 45 degree
Observation deck (adjacent) = 1145 ft
horizontal distance (opposite) = x

<h3>Trigonometric Ratios</h3>

Using trigonometric ratios, we have the value of adjacent and angle, we can easily use tangent of the angle to find the horizontal distance

$tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Substitute the values into the equation and solve

$tan45 = \frac{x}{1145}\\ x = 1145tan45\\x = 1145ft$

The horizontal distance between the base of the skyscraper to the ship is 1145 feet.

The millers drove 150 miles in 3 hours at what rate how long will it take them to drive 400 miles

valentina_108 [34]

Rate = (150 miles)/(3 hrs) = 50 mph

so . . .

(50 mph)*(time) = 400 miles

*divide both sides by 50 mph

time = (400 miles)/(50 mph) = 8 hrs

time = 8 hrs
