Answer: B) Comparison Postulate

This is the idea where if we had two numbers A and B, then we have the three possibilities

A < B
A = B
A > B

We can only pick one item that is true at a time.

In this case, 3+2 simplifies to 5, so 3+2 = 5 is true while 3+2 > 5 is not true.

3+2 > 5 simplifies to 5 > 5, and there's no way a number is larger than itself.

From an aeroplane vertically above a straight horizontal plane, the angles of depression of two consecutive kilometres stones on

Airida [17]

You have to build the triangles.

They are such that:
h is the common height
x is the horizontal distance from the plane to one stone
Beta is the angle between x and the hypotenuse

Then in this triangle: tan(beta) = h / x ......(1)

1 - x is the horizontal distance from the plane to the other stone
alfa is the angle between 1 - x and h

Then, in this triangle: tan (alfa) = h / [1 -x ] ...... (2)

from (1) , x = h / tan(beta)

Substitute this value in (2)

tan(alfa) = h / { [ 1 - h / tan(beta)] } =>

{ [ 1 - h / tan(beta) ] } tan(alfa) = h

[tan(beta) - h] tan(alfa) = h*tan(beta)

tan(beta)tan(alfa) - htan(alfa) = htan(beta)

h [tan(alfa) + tan(beta) ] = tan(beta) tan (alfa)

h = tan(beta)*tan(alfa) / (t an(alfa) + tan(beta) )
