Answer:

71.32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We set up a trigonometric function to get height of tree

Distance ,x = 35 feet away from tree base

Angle = 62⁰ at eye level

Y = tan(angle) * x

= Y = tan(62⁰) x 35

Y = 1.881 x 35

Y = 65.82 feet

We add Tamara's height to the total height of the tree

= 65.82feet + 5.5 feet

= 71.32 feet is the height of the tree

Two identical number cubes are shown in the picture. The edge length of these number cubes is 3 centimeters. What is the combine
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

They are both identical cubes which makes it much easier.

Work out the volume for just one first.

The formula for volume is:

l x w x h

However, since it is a cube, all lengths are the same.

3 x 3 x 3 = 27

Now multiply it by 2 to get the volume of both combined:

27 x 2 = 54.

In short, your answer is  54cm 3

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck :)

Answer:

SU = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

SR = RU

4x - 1 = x + 8

3x - 1 = 8

3x = 9

x = 3

SR =  4(3) - 1 = 11

RU =  3 + 8 = 11

SU = 11 + 11 = 22
