Ships A and B are 1,425 feet apart and detect a submarine below them. The angle of depression from ship A to the submarine is 59

°, and the angle of depression from ship B to the submarine is 47°. How far away is the submarine from the two ships? Round to the nearest hundredth of a foot. The distance from ship A to the submarine is about feet. The distance from ship B to the submarine is about feet.

Answer: The distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance between Ships A and B = 1425 feet

Angle of depression from ship A to the submarine =59°

Angle of depression from ship B to the submarine = 47°

As shown in the figure below:

Remaining angle will be

180\textdegree-(47\textdegree+59\textdegree)\\\\=180\textdegree-106\textdegree\\\\=74\textdegree

So, we will use "Sine formula ":

\frac{\sin 74\textdegree}{1425}=\frac{\sin 59\textdegree}{B}\\\\B=\frac{1425\times \sin 59\textdegree}{\sin 74\textdegree}\\\\B=1270.68\ feet

Similarly,

\frac{\sin 74\textdegree}{1425}=\frac{\sin 47\textdegree}{A}\\\\A=\frac{1425\times \sin 47\textdegree}{\sin 74\textdegree}\\\\A=1084.18\ feet

Hence, the distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.

Their are 6 equilateral triangles in a regular hexagon:
The area of one triangle = (x²√3)/4, then:
1st answer: The area of the hexagon base: is  6 TIMES the area of one equilateral triangle [or, needed for 2nd, question, TOT AREA:(6x²√3)/4] = (3x²√3)/2] unit²

2nd answer: :
Volume of pyramid: (base area)(height)/3
Volume of pyramid: (3x²√3).(3x)/3 (because height = 3x, given)
Then Volume of pyramid= 3x³√3 unit³.
3 is the answer for the second question

In a triangle the measurements of the angles are x°, ( x + 6)°, (2x + 10)°, and the sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180
34kurt

Answer:

largest angle = 92°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the measurement of the angles are;

x°, ( x + 6)°, (2x + 10)°

And we know that sum of angles in a triangle is 180. Thus;

x + (x + 6) + (2x + 10) = 180

x + x + 6 + 2x + 10 = 180

4x + 16 = 180

4x = 180 - 16

4x = 164

x = 164/4

x = 41°

The other two angles will be;

(41 + 6)° and (2(41) + 10)°

Which gives;

47° and 92°

So,largest angle = 92°
