Answer:
<h3>AB ≈ 70m</h3>Step-by-step explanation:
Check the attachment for the diagram.
You can see from the diagram that it is a right angled triangle with opposite side AB and adjacent side BC. Using SOH, CAH, TOA trig identity to get the length of AB. According to TOA;
tan 35° = opposite/adjacent
tan 35° = AB/BC
tan 35° = AB/100
AB = 100tan35°
AB = 100 * 0.7002
AB = 70.02m
Hence the distance across a lake between A and B is approximately 70m

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Locate the digit to the right of the place you're rounding to. If that digit is 5 or more, add 1 to the digit in the place you're rounding to. Drop all digits to the right of the one you're rounding to, unless it is left of the decimal point. In that case, zero any digits between the one you rounded and the decimal point. (See problem 3 for an example of this.)
If you're rounding to the ones place (nearest whole number), and that digit ends up being 0, then put a decimal point after it to indicate it is a significant digit.
The second attachment shows the names of the number places, if you need a reminder.
