Answer: 25.2361459992ft

This question can be solved by a trigonometric equation. Shadow formed when something with height like a tree, so it can be pictured as a vertical line. Shadow is a length of and can be pictured as a horizontal line.  
In trigonometric, to find the vertical line length with horizontal line you need tan function. The sun angle will be used in the function, so the calculation would be: tan(31) x 42ft = 25.2361459992ft

4-58. Lisa plans to retire on her 61st birthday. On her
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Lisa invest "$2180.81" in her bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

On Lisa's 62nd birthday,

she withdraw = $10,000

The annuity of $A will remain at 3 percent for 40 years. The retirement pension of $10000 lasts 23 years at rate percentage of 3 but begins 40 years later.

⇒  A\times (\frac{P}{A} ,3 \ percent,40) - 10000 (\frac{P}{A} ,3 \ percent,23)\times \frac{1}{(1.03)40} = 0

⇒  A\times 23.1148 - 10000\times 16.4436\times 0.3066 = 0

⇒  A = 10000\times 16.4436\times \frac{0.3066}{23.1148}

⇒      = 10000\times 16.4436\times 0.0132

⇒      =2180.81 ($)

Draw a picture to show the product of 4:7 x 3. Then write the product
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

¹²/₇

Step-by-step explanation:

Model ⁴/₇ × 3

Assume that you have three pies, each dived into seven slices.

There are only four slices remaining in each pie, that is, there is ⁴/₇ pie in each pie plate

The picture represents ⁴/₇ × 3.  

Model the product

Now, transfer slices to get as many filled pie plates as possible.

Count the total slices.

You have 12 slices, and each slice represents ⅐ of a pie.

You have ¹²/₇  pie.

∴ ⁴/₇ × 3 = ¹²/₇

Given cosθ=√3/3 and sinθ<0. What is the value of sinθ?
KATRIN_1 [288]

\sin^{2} \theta+\cos^{2} \theta=1 \\ \\ \sin^{2} \theta+\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} \right)^{2}=1 \\ \\ \sin^{2} \theta+\frac{1}{3}=1 \\ \\ \sin^{2} \theta=\frac{2}{3} \\ \\ \theta=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}=\boxed{-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}}
