Notice the picture below
so.... the angle of depression, is above in dashed lines.... however, the angle of depression, is identical to the angle of elevation from the water, since, both angles are "alternate interior" angles
now, using the 45-45-90 rule, then we know the swimmer is 90 feet from the lighthouse, then just use the tangent ratio to get "x"
together = add
add the fractions
3 7/10 + 5 9/10
add the whole numbers first
3+5=8
add the fractions
7/10+9/10= 16/10
8 16/10
reduce 16/10 divide by 2
16/2= 8
10/2= 5
8 8/5
whole number changes to 9
8-5=3
denominator stays the same
9 3/5
Answer:
9 3/5
The broken wing weighed 10 pounds and 14 ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound. I hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of circle:
A=π*(r^2)=π*(16^2)=256π ft^2
Area of the figure:
A=(3*256π)/4=192π=603.185=603.18 ft^2
