To answer this question, you need to have an idea about how to handle trigonometric equations, sin, cos and tan

Amy looks up to the 8-foot basketball
8 feet - 5.9 feet = 2.1
= 2.1 inverse tan (2.1 / 22)
= 5.4526

Elevation to the nearest tenth = 5.5 feet

I don’t know how to do any of this
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The length of x in #1 is 15.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use #1 as an example to teach show you how to do this. In a right triangle we can solve these using trig. In this particular one, we have the measure adjacent to the angle and we are looking for the one opposite of the angle. So we look at all the trig functions and select the one that uses both of those two terms.

Sinα = Opp/Hyp

Tanα = Opp/Adj

Cosα = Adj/Hyp

As you can see, Tan is the function we are looking for. So we plug in all known information into that equation.

Tanα = Opp/Adj -----> Plug in known values

Tan(60) = x/9 ----->Calculate out the trig function

1.73 = x/9 -----> Multiply by the denominator to solve

15.57 = x

Mattie is making a collar for her dog. She needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag. She wants the chain to be 40 centime
Fantom [35]

Answer:the total cost of the collar is $5.11

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a collar for her dog, she needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag.

The length of the chain that she wants to buy is 40 centimeters.

1000 centimeters = 1 meter

40 centimeters = 40/1000 = 0.04 meters.

One meter of chain costs $9.75. Therefore, 0.04 meters of chain would cost

0.04 × 9.75 = $0.39

The clasp is $1.29 and the name tag is $3.43. Therefore, the total cost of the collar would be

0.39 + 1.29 + 3.43 = $5.11
