The angle here is an acute angle at ground level.  Then the side adjacent to this angle is 126 feet.  The opp. side is the tower, 111 feet tall.

Then   

tan theta = opp / adj = 111 / 126.  Using the inverse tangent function, we find that the measure of the angle is 0.722 radian or 41 degrees (to the nearest degree).

Graphs of functions on the interval [−4, 4] are depicted below. For each function, find:
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

a) The domain is the set of the possible values of x.

In the graph, we can see that x goes from - 4 to 4

So the domain is: D = x∈ {-4, 4)

b) The zeros are the points where the graph cuts the x-axis.

Those values are:

x = -2

x = 0

x = 2.

c) The graph is positive if it is above the x-axis and it is negative if it is below the x-axis.

in the interval {-4,0} the graph is bellow the x-axis, so in this interval the function is negative.

in the interval {0, 2} the graph is above the x-axis, so in this interval the function is positive.

in the interval {2, 4} the graph is bellow the x-axis, so in this interval the function is negative.
