Answer:

33.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An ant looks up to the top of a tree with an angle of elevation of 38.

To Find:  If the ant is 43 feet from the base of the tree, what is the height of the tree, to the nearest tenth?

Solution:

Refer the attached figure

An ant looks up to the top of a tree with an angle of elevation of 38.i.e.∠ACB= 38°

The ant is 43 feet from the base of the tree i.e.BC = 43 feet.

Now we are supposed to find the height of the tree i.e. AB

Now we will use trigonometric ratio

Tan \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

Tan 38^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{BC}

Tan 38^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{43}

0.78128= \frac{AB}{43}

0.78128 \times 43= AB

33.6= AB

Hence the height of the tree is 33.6 feet.

The vertices of a triangle are A(2,5), B(1, 2), and C(3, 1). Find the coordinates of the image after a dilation with respect
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The coordinates of the image after a dilation with respect to the origin is A'' (2,10), B" (0,4), C" (4,2) .

<h3>How does dilation work?</h3>

Dilation of a figure will leave its sides get scaled (multiplied) by same number. That number is called the scale factor of that dilation.

Its also called scaling of a figure, but due to the involvement of coordinates, it involves a center of a dilation, which is like a pinned point that stays at the same place after dilation.

Its like we enlarge or shorten the size of the figure (or keep it same, when scale factor = 1).

The vertices of a triangle are A(2,5), B(1, 2), and C(3, 1).

A' = 2(2.5) = (4,10)

B' = 2(1,2) = (2,4)

C' = 2(3,1) = (6,2)

Translation of 2 units left means change in x

A'' = (4-2,10) = (2,10)

B" = (2-2,4) = (0,4)

C" = (6-2,2) = (4,2)

Translation of 1 units up means change in y

Sam practices his guitar for 9 hours each week he practices each song for 3 1/2 hours. What is the greatest number of song he ca
liberstina [14]

Answer:

<em>The greatest number of song he can practice in a week is  2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the greatest number of song he can practice in a week is  x

He practices each song for 3\frac{1}{2} hours. So, the total time required for practicing x number of songs = (3\frac{1}{2}*x) hours.

Given that, he practices his guitar for 9 hours each week.

So, the equation will be......

3\frac{1}{2}*x= 9\\ \\ x= 9\div 3\frac{1}{2}\\ \\ x=9\div \frac{7}{2}=9 \times \frac{2}{7}=\frac{18}{7}= 2.571.... \approx 2

<em>(Rounded as the greatest whole number)</em>

Thus, the greatest number of song he can practice in a week is  2.
