Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle triangle is formed

The length of the guy wire represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The ground distance between the guy wire and the pole represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

The height of the pole represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the length of the wire, h, we would apply Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

h² = 6² + 4²

h² = 36 + 16 = 52

h = √52

h = 7.21 meters

Line AB is Perpendicular to line BC. A=(-3,2) and C=(2,7). Which of the following could be the coordinates of B? Select all that
Llana [10]

Answer:

The answer would be Choice F; (-3,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Plot the two guaranteed given points
  2. A, (-3,2) and C, (2,7)
  3. Find the point where the x and y would share and then form a right angle. This is called being Perpendicular.
  4. So, take the <em>x</em> of A, and the <em>y</em> of C and you have the coordinates of B.

(-3,7)

givi [52]
2sin²(-2490)+tan 1410=2sin²(-330-6*360)+tan (330+3*360)=
=2sin²(-330)+tan (330)=2 sin²(30-1*360)+tan (-30)=
=2sin²(30)-tan (30)=2(1/2)²-√3/3=1/2-√3/3)=(3-2√3)/6

Answer: 2 sin²(-2490)+tan (1410)=(3-2√3)/6    (≈-0.07735...)
