Reflection. A reflection is what appears to be the same distance from the other side of the mirror.
Answer:
Q1
cos 59° = x/16
x = 16 cos 59°
x = 8.24
Q2
BC is given 23 mi
Maybe AB is needed
AB = √34² + 23² = 41 (rounded)
Q3
BC² = AB² - AC²
BC = √(37² - 12²) = 35
Q4
Let the angle is x
cos x = 19/20
x = arccos (19/20)
x = 18.2° (rounded)
Q5
See attached
Added point D and segments AD and DC to help with calculation
BC² = BD² + DC² = (AB + AD)² + DC²
Find the length of added red segments
AD = AC cos 65° = 14 cos 65° = 5.9
DC = AC sin 65° = 14 sin 65° = 12.7
Now we can find the value of BC
BC² = (19 + 5.9)² + 12.7²
BC = √781.3
BC = 28.0 yd
All calculations are rounded
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Just put x = 80 and y = 210 into the equation...
or put x = 40, y = 90.
A:
210 - 90 = 3(80-40)
120 = 120√
B:
210 + 90 = 3(80+40)
300 = 360×
C:
210 - 90 = 2.6(80-40)
120 = 104×
D:
210 + 90 = 2.6(80+40)
300 = 312×
Answer:
I agree that this question can be confusing:
Apparently point A and point B must be on the same straight line (measured from the light house or the question would be nonsensical)
tan 13 = H / DA where H is height of lighthouse
tan 8 = H / DB tangent measured from point B
tan 13 / tan 8 = DB / DA
DB = .2309 / .1405 * 1279 = 2101 ft
DB - DA = 2101 - 1279 = 822.0 ft
