5,998.7714 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Well find x in the illustration;

First To find the opposite side of the right-angled triangle we'll using tangent of the given angle

Tangent Ф = Length of the opposite side / Length of the adjacent side

Tan 43 = h / 6390

h = Tan (43) * 6390

h = 5,958.7714 ft

Then we'll add the height of the beacon which is 40 ft above ground;

x = 5,958.7714 ft + 40 ft

x = 5,998.7714 ft

Dan invests £1300 into his bank account.
alexandr402 [8]

Given parameters:

Principal  = £1300

Interest rate  = 5%

Duration  = 2yrs

Unknown:

Total amount of Dan's principal = ?

To solve this problem, we apply the equation below:

  Total investment worth  = Principal + interest

   Interest  = \frac{PRT}{100}

where P is the principal

          R is the rate

          T is the time

Now, input the parameters;

     Total investment worth  = £1300 + £ \frac{1300 x 5 x 2}{100}

                                             = £1300 + £130

                                             = £1430

The amount after two years is £1430

a park is shaped like a rectangle with a length 11 times its width w. what is a simplified expression for the distance between o
garik1379 [7]
Width = w
length = 11w
Pythagoras theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Let's say the width is a, the length is b, and the distance between corners (call it d) is c
w^2 + 11w^2 = d^2
Collect like terms,
12w^2 = d^2
Simply
12w = d
