To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- The ladder forms an isosceles triangle, because it has two equal sides.

2- Let's call the angle \alpha. To calculate it , you can divide the triangle into two equal right triangles and the angle \alpha will be divided into two equal parts too. Therefore, you can calculate the half of the angle and then multiply it by two, as following:

Sin^{-1}(\alpha 1)=opposite/hypotenuse

Sin^{-1}(\alpha1)=8/2\\  \alpha1=14.47 degrees

\alpha =2\alpha 1\\ 2=2(14.47degrees)\\ \alpha =28.95degrees

The answer is: 28.95degrees

Answer:

A. 8 1/4 * 11 1/2 * 14=1328 1/4 ft^2

OR

8 1/4 height times 11 1/2 width times 14 in length equals 1328 1/4 feet squared

B. 8 1/4 * 14 1/2 * 14=1674 3/4

OR

8 1/4 height times 11 1/2 width plus 3 so 14 1/2 width times 14 equals 1674 3/4 feet squared

Which interval on the graph indicates she is stuck in a traffic jam? A B C D
masha68 [24]
Let's look at each one of the intervals.

Interval A
Interval A looks like she's going at a pretty steady pace, so Interval A is not the correct answer. 

Interval B
Interval B looks like she stays at 2.5 for an hour. That looks like a traffic jam to me! 

The correct answer is Interval B. 

Hope this helps! If it does, be sure to rate, thank and if it really helped, give brainliest. It helps me rank up. Thanks! :)
