Step-by-step answer:

The first step in solving a problem of geometry and trigonometry is to draw a diagram, with all the given information in it.  The attached image does just that.

Here, we have (horizontal) distance of building to the tower is 400'.

We see two right triangles, each with a leg of 400' (horizontal).

The vertical distances are denoted h1 and h2 for the angles of elevation 24 and 20 degrees respectively.

Using the definition of tangent, we have

h1= 400tan24=178.1

h2=400tan20=145.6

The height of the tower is therefore h1+h2=178.1+145.6=323.7 feet

A 17 foot piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 5 feet longer than twice the shorter piece. If the
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Shorter piece= 4 ft, longer piece= 13 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If shorter piece is x

Longer pc is 2x + 5

Together they make 17 feet

So x + 2x + 5 = 17

3 x + 5 = 17

3x = 17 - 5 = 12

3x = 12

X = 12/ 3 = 4

So shorter pc is 4 feet

Longer pc is 2 x + 5

= (2 x 4) + 5

= 8 + 5 = 13
