The answer is the first one so A
Answer: Choice B
Building A; it is around 50.34 feet taller than building B
======================================================
Explanation:
Draw two right triangles such that they both have a reference angle of 40 degrees. Since it's an angle of elevation, place the angle near the horizontal side.
Opposite each reference angle is the height of the building, which we'll call h.
The adjacent side is the horizontal distance from the person to the building.
Building A is 120 ft away so it's height is...
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(40) = h/120
h = 120*tan(40)
h = 100.69
This value is approximate. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
-----------------
Repeat the same idea for building B, except the adjacent side is smaller this time.
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(40) = h/60
h = 60*tan(40)
h = 50.35
This value is approximate.
-----------------
Now subtract the heights
100.69 - 50.35 = 50.34
This shows that building A is roughly 50.34 taller than building B.
Answer:
c. y= 0.5(2)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
i hope this helps :)
The answer would be 35 students because if you divide both numbers by 35 you get even numbers. You cannot have more students because then it wouldn't be divided evenly.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, the center origin of the circle is given (h,k) = (-3,5).
Point on the circle is (x,y) = (1,8)
We have to find our radius as they gave us a point. from origin to the edge of the circle.
Using the formula: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Plug in our (h,k) = (-3,5) and (x,y) = (1,8) to solve for radius.
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
(1 - (-3))^2 + (8 - (5))^2 = r^2
(4)^2 + (3)^2 = r^2
16 + 9 = r^2
r^2 = 25
r = 5
