Distance of the person from the building (x)
tan 24 = 20/x => x = 20/tan 24 = 44.92 ft
The height of the building above the height of the person and the distance of the person from the building forms two legs of right angled triangle.
Therefore, if h is the height of the building, then;
tan 31 = (h-20)/44.92
h-20 = 44.92 tan 31
h = (44.92 tan 31) + 20 = 26.99 + 20 = 46.99 ft
Answer:
m is less than A apparently
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Which means that this equation is also true: 8/9 > 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Is 8/9 less than 1/9? Is 8/9 smaller than 1/9? These are the same questions with one answer.
To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:
8/9 = 0.889
1/9 = 0.111
Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.
0.889 is not less than 0.111.
Therefore, 8/9 is not less than 1/9 and the answer to the question "Is 8/9 less than 1/9?" is no.
