5/8 is greater than 1/2. 4/8 is equal to 1/2. So, 5/8 is bigger than 1/2

A tree 12m high is broken by the wind in such a way that its top touches the ground and makes an angle 60° with the ground. at w
Katena32 [7]

The height of broken part of tree from ground is 5.569m.

Justification:

Let BD is a tree of height 12 m.

<u>Suppose it got bent at a point C and let the part CD take the position CA, meeting the ground at A</u>.

i.e., CD = AC = h m

<u>Broken part makes 60° angle from ground</u>

So, ∠BAC = 60°

<u>Now, height of remaining part of tree</u> = (12 – h)m.

In right angled ∆ABC,

sin 60° = BC/AC

⇒ √3/2 = (12 - h)/h

⇒ √3h = 2(12 – h)

⇒ √3h = 24 – 2h

⇒ √3h + 2h = 24

⇒ h(√3 + 2) = 24

⇒ h(1.732 + 2) = 24

⇒ h(3.732) = 24

⇒ h = 24/3.732 = 6.4308 m

<u>Hence, height of broken tree from ground</u>

⇒ BC = 12 – h

⇒ 12 – 6.4308 = 5.569m

<u>Hence, tree is broken 5.569 m from ground</u>.

<u>Note</u>: See attached picture.

Solve (x +9)2 = 25.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

x =  - 4 \: or \: x =  - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation

(x + 9) {}^{2}  = 25

and we are asked to apply the square root property of equality to our given a equation and isolate the variable

First, take the square root of both sides of our equation

\sqrt{(x + 9) {}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{25}

x + 9 =  \: 15

x + 9 = 5 \: or \: x + 9 =  - 5

x + 9 - 9 = 5 - 9 \: or \: x + 9 - 9 =  - 5 - 9

x =  - 4 \: or \: x =  - 14

<em>THEREFORE, THERE ARE TWO SOLUTIONS FOR OUR GIVEN EQUATION</em>

<em>x + 9 = 5 \: then \: x =  - 4. \\ x + 9 =  - 5 \: then \: x =  - 14</em>

<u><em>PLEASE</em><em> </em><em>MAKR</em><em> </em><em>ME</em><em> </em><em>BRAINLIEST</em><em> </em><em>IF</em><em> </em><em>YOU</em><em> </em><em>ARE</em><em> </em><em>HAPPY</em><em> </em><em>WITH</em><em> </em><em>THE</em><em> </em><em>ANSWER</em></u>

A child lies on the ground and looks up at the top of a 9-ft tree nearby. The child is 13 ft away from the tree. What is the ang
choli [55]
Draw a right triangle to represent the problem.
The vertical height of the triangle is 9 ft, and it represents the tree.
The horizontal length, at the bottom of the tree is ground level and has a length of 13 ft.

Let x =  angle of elevation.

By definition,
tan x = 9/13 = 0.6923
x = arctan(0.6923) = 34.7 deg. = 35 deg (approx)
