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

Determine the value(s) for which the rational expression 2x^2/6x is undefined. If there's more than one value, list them separat
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, dividing by 0 is not defined. so

\dfrac{2x^2}{6x}

is defined for x different from 0

This being said, we can simplify by 2x

\dfrac{2x^2}{6x}=\dfrac{2x*x}{3*2x}=\dfrac{1}{3}x

and this last expression is defined for any real number x.

Thank you

If sec 50 = cosec 70, prove that 0 = 7.5°​
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The proofing is given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sec 5\theta = cosec 7\theta\\\\cosec (90 - 5\theta)  = cosec 7\theta\\\\Now\ on\ comparision \\\\90 - 5\theta = 7\theta\\\\90 = 7\theta + 5\theta\\\\90 = 12\theta\\\\\frac{90}{12} = \theta\\\\0.75 = \theta

Hence, it is proved
