Answer:

\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{100 \ meters}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the right triangle created is 100 meters.

The angle between the base and the hypotenuse of the right triangle is 45 degrees.

We can use trigonometric functions to solve for the height of the tower.

\displaystyle \mathrm{tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} }

Let the height be x.

\displaystyle \mathrm{tan(45)}=\frac{x}{100}

Multiplying both sides by 100.

\displaystyle 100 \cdot \mathrm{tan(45)}=x

100=x

The height of the tower is 100 meters.

Answer:

SOHCAHTOA.

TOA=opposite/adjacent.

Tan45=100/h.

h tan45=100.

h×1=100.

h=100m

PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST 50+25 POINTS!!!<br><br>Graph the following piecewise function.
Luda [366]

We need to graph the given piecewise function.

To graph any piecewise function we do that into parts

Let's graph upper part first which is

f(x)=x^2+2

restriction for that is -5 \leq x < 3

that means we are free to pick any number for x that is between -5 and 3, including 3.

So we will find few points by plugging random numbers between -5 and 3.

Let's use x=-5, we get:

f(-5)=(-5)^2+2=25+2=27

so first point is (-5,27).

similarly we can find other points like (0,2), (2,6), (-1,3) etc.

Now we join those points by a curved line.

-5 \leq x means we use a close circle at -5

x<3 means use open circle at 3


------------

Repeat same process for 2nd part f(x)=x-4

choose any number between 3 and 7 like x=3, 4 etc

so we get points (3,-1), (4,0) etc

Now graph them

So the final graph will look like:

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below
frutty [35]

Answer:

sqrt(104) =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem since this is the right triangle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

2^2 + 10^2 = x^2

4+100 = x^2

104 = x^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(104) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(104) =x
