First we would need to make a diagram, and from the given it would seem like it is a right triangle with the height as 760 ft. We have an angle given 89°18' which would need to be converted to degrees form, which is 89.3<span>°. 

Now we would need to look for the ground distance, meaning the adjacent of the triangle. Since we have been given the angle and the height (which is the opposite side from the angle) we use the trigonometric function cotangent.

</span><span>760 Cot <span>[<span><span>(<span>89.3</span>)</span>∘</span>]</span>= 9.29 ft, that is the answer.</span>

Answer:

The headquarters is 9 ft away from a point on the ground directly below the balloon .

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of balloon is 760 ft and the angle of depression is 89°18' = 89 \frac{18}{60} =89.3°.

A right angled triangle is formed ( as shown in figure ) .Let x represent the distance of headquarters from a point on the ground directly below the balloon .

Tan 89.3=\frac{760}{x}

81.85 x= 760 .[ Tan 89.3= 81.85]

Dividing both sides by 81.85:

x= 9.3

Or x=9 ft ( rounded to nearest foot)

The headquarters is 9 ft away from a point on the ground directly below the balloon .

the surface area of a cuboid is 95cm² and its lateral surface area is 63cm². find the area of its base​
wel

Answer:

The Area of the base is 16 cm² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The surface area of the cuboid = x = 95 cm²

The lateral surface area of the cuboid = y = 63 cm²

Let The Area of the base = z cm²

Now, Let The length of cuboid = l cm

The breadth of cuboid = b cm

The height of cuboid = h cm

<u>According to question</u>

∵ The surface area of the cuboid = 2 ×(length × breadth + breadth × height + height × length)

Or, x = 2 ×(l × b + b × h + h × l)

Or, 95 =  2 ×(l × b + b × h + h × l)

Or,  (l × b + b × h + h × l) = \dfrac{95}{2}          ....1

<u>Similarly</u>

∵lateral surface area of the cuboid = 2 ×(breadth × height + length × height)

Or, y = 2 ×(b × h + l × h)

Or, 2 ×(b × h + l × h) = 63

Or, (b × h + l × h) = \dfrac{63}{2}              ......2

Putting value of eq 2 into eq 1

so,  (l × b +  \dfrac{63}{2} ) = \dfrac{95}{2}    

Or, l × b = \dfrac{95}{2} - \dfrac{63}{2}    

Or,  l × b = \dfrac{95 - 63}{2}

i.e l × b = \dfrac{32}{2}

so, l × b = 16

<u>Now, Again</u>

∵The Area of the base = ( length × breadth ) cm²

So, z =  l × b

i.e z = 16 cm²

So, The Area of the base = z = 16 cm²

Hence,The Area of the base is 16 cm² . Answer
