I need some love in my life
We use the trigonometric function for this case. An escalator is an inclined path. We form a right triangle since we have given the value of the height. The height from the first floor to second floor is called the adjacent while the travelled distance of the people is called the hypothenuse. We use cosine function because we are given in terms of adjacent and hypothenuse. The ratio of cosine function is
cos x = a/h
where x is the angle
Solving for h,
h = a/(cos x) = 21/(cos 30) = 24.25 ft
Answer for #12 Is Length = 630FT & Width 335 FT
Answer for #13 is 4600 Items & 7800 Items. I have this workbook with the same problems :) Hope this helped :)
