An angle of elevation of 58 degrees with the ground means that the angle started at the x-axis and terminates on the first quadrant region through a counter clockwise direction. Imagining a triangle, the string of the kite becomes the hypotenuse, the angle 58 degrees is the angle between the hypotenuse and the ground, and the height of the kite is the side opposite to the angle.

Therefore, we can calculate for the height of the kite using the sin function:

sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse

sin 58 = opposite side / 50 m

opposite side = 50 m * sin 58

opposite side = 42.4 m

<span>Therefore the kite is about 42.4 m above the ground.</span>

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want a graph of ...

  x^2/49 +(y +1)^2/4 = 1

This is an ellipse centered at (x, y) = (0, -1) with a major axis in the x-direction of 14, and a minor axis in the y-direction of 4.

Check the picture below.

notice the sides, now, on the second triangle, side 6 slants a bit more to fit in 13, on the third triangle, side 6 slants even further to fit 13 in, now, if 6 were to slant completely, it'll make a flat-line with side 5, and there will be a triangle no more.

but even if side 6 would stretch to a flat-line, 5+6 is just 11, whilst side 13 is longer than that, so no dice.

Fifteen students are going hiking on their spring break. They plan to travel in three vehicles—one seating 7, one seating 5, and
andriy [413]

Answer:

The students can group themselves in 360360 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise we need to use the following equation:

\frac{n!}{n1!*n2!*...*nk!}

This equation give us the number of assignation of n elements in k cell, where n1, n2, ..nk are the element that are in every cell

In this case we have 15 student that need to be assign in three vehicles with an specific capacity. This vehicles would be the equivalent to cells, so we can write the equation as:

  \frac{15!}{7!*5!*3!}

Because the first vehicle have 7 seating, the second vehicle have 5 seating and the third vehicle have 3 seating.

Solving the equation we get 360360 ways to organized 15 students in three vehicles with capacity of 7, 5  and 3 seating.
