Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Identify</u>
Leg <em>a</em> = <em>x</em>
Leg <em>b</em> = 5
Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = 8
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute [PT]: x² + 5² = 8²
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: x² = 8² - 5²
- Exponents: x² = 64 - 25
- Subtract: x² = 39
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = √39
67 add the anwers though just so i can make sure
Answer:
x =
25
/(1 − sin(y
)) and y ≠
π/2 +2πn
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve and simplify for x,
(x − 25
)/ x = sin(y)
Let's multiply both sides by x
((x − 25
)/x) *x= sin(y)*x
Then,
x − 25 = sin(y) * x
Let's add 25 to both sides
x − 25 + 25 = sin(y) * x + 25
If simplify again,
x = sin(y) * x + 25
Then we need subtract sin y x from both sides
x − sin(y) * x = sin (y)* x + 25 − sin (y)* x
It will equal:
x − sin (y)* x = 25
Factor x−sin(y) x: x(1−sin(y) ), then we get:
x (1 − sin(y)) = 25
Finally we need divide both sides by 1 − sin(y) ; y ≠π
/2
+ 2πn
And it will give us this equation:
x =
25
/(1 − sin(y
)) and y ≠
π/2 +2πn
(length of tree's shadow)/(height of tree) = (length of person's shadow)/(person's height)
24/x = 8/5
24*5 = x*8
120 = 8x
8x = 120
8x/8 = 120/8
x = 15
The tree is 15 feet tall
