Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to sit in the very top of said tree and look directly straight, your line of vision would be parallel to the ground. The angle of depression is in between your line of vision and the rock. When you look down at the rock, your line of vision to the rock is a transversal between the 2 parallel lines. With this being the case, the angle of depression is alternate interior with the angle made on the ground from the rock to the top of the tree. See the illustration I attached below.
We are looking for the distance on the ground between the tree and the rock, which we will call x. The side opposite the reference angle is the height of the tree and the side adjacent to the reference angle is x. Side opposite over side adjacent is the tangent ratio. Therefore,
and
and on your calculator in degree mode, you will find that
x = 16.08 m
You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Length of rope = 120 feet
1 foot = 12 inches
20 foot = 20*12 = 240 inches
Length of bead = 10 inches
Let,
x represents the number of beads used on rope.
As the rope is 240 inches long, therefore, the total length of beads cannot exceed 240 inches.
Length of each bead*Number of beads ≤ length of rope
Dividing both sides by 10
You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.
