We know that
tan ∅=opposite side angle ∅/adjacent side angle ∅

in this problem
opposite side angle ∅=150 ft
adjacent side angle ∅=120 ft
∅=angle of elevation
so
tan ∅=150/120--------> 1.25
∅=arc tan(1.25)---------> ∅=51.34°

the answer is
51.34°

semi-ellipse on coordinate axes in a convenient position and draw it.

5. What is the equation of the ellipse? How wide will the canal need to be for the

Petroleum ship?

6. Now that you know which of the two alternatives provides the widest channel, consider other

factors. His department is also in charge of verifying the depth of the channel, the

a) A battalion of soldiers wanted to have a parade forming a square design with 1,536 soldiers. Is it possible ? If not how many
Dmitrij [34]
A square with 1,536 soldiers are not possible, i.e. the square root of 1,536 is about 39.191, which means that 1,536 is not a square a number. In order for it to be a square number, we have to round up 39.191 (because it says "how many more soldiers") to 40 and 40×40=1,600 and 1,600-1,536, so we need 64 more soldiers.

The greatest 4 digit number is simple. If the square root of 10,000 is 100, than, one can assume that because 100-1=99, the resulting answer of 99×99 is less than 10,000, meaning that is is 4 digits. 99×99=9,801.
