Answer:

distance = 994.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

City A = 36°6′ = 36° + \frac{6}{60} = 36.1° = 36.1° × \frac{\pi}{180} = 0.6297 rad

City B = 21°42′ = 21° + \frac{42}{60} = 21.7° = 21.7° × \frac{\pi}{180} = 0.3785 rad

multiply by π/180 to convert the degree to radian

radius of Earth = 3960 miles

to find out

distance between City A and City B

solution

we first get here central angle between A and B city is

central angle between A and B city = 0.6297 rad - 0.3785 rad

and

now by arc length so  we get distance

distance = 3960 miles × (0.6297 rad - 0.3785 rad )

distance = 994.75 miles

A swimming pool is a rectangular prism. The pool is 36 feet long and 20 feet wide. What is the total amount of water, in cubic f
Sliva [168]

Answer:

2880\ ft^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the total amount of water needed could be determined by using the volume formula which is shown below:

Volume = L \times W \times D

where

L = length,

W = width,

and D = depth.

Now putting the values to the above formula

Volume = (36\ ft) \times (20\ ft) \times (4\ ft) \\\\= 2880\ ft^{3}                            

Therefore, the  total amount of water needed is 2880\ ft^{3}

We simply applied the above formula

If someone can please answer the question in the picture thatd be great
Ann [662]

Answer:

≈ 20.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is formed between the wall, the ground and the ladder.

The ladder is the hypotenuse , the wall and ground are the legs.

let h be the height of the wall, then using Pythagoras' identity

h² + 33² = 39²

h² + 1089 = 1521 ( subtract 1089 from both sides )

h² = 432 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = \sqrt{432} ≈ 20.8 ft ( to the nearest tenth )

How to do the fractions
Alenkasestr [34]

you could either multiply straight away or you could simplify right then so that you wouldn't have to it later.

20/5 * 5/2

your answer would be 10 either way
