We have an rectangle triangle

Pythagoras therorem:
hypotenuse²=side₁²+side₂²

hypotenuse=61 feet
side₁=11 feet
side₂=height

(61 feet)²=(11 feet)²+ side₂²
3721 ft²=121 ft²+ side₂²
side₂²=3721 ft²-121 ft²
side₂²=3600 ft²
side₂=√(3600 ft²)
side₂=60 ft.

heigth=60 feet

Difference of Squares gives which complex factors for the expression x² +11?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

i has to appear somewhere. That lets D and B out. They are both wrong.

C has only one i. It can't be right either. You need 2 i-s which will multiply to +1 when squared. That leaves you with a.

The way a is written, it can't be the answer either. For one thing, that 2 makes the answer question at best.

I would say there is no correct answer. Could you check the question? Also it would be a good idea to ask your instructor how this works, in case I'm wrong.

(A) Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree<span>
Given that the distance of the ground is 9ft.
Length of the plank is 41 ft

In order to get the angle formed between the ground and the foot of the plank,

cos (theta) = ground / plank
cos (theta) = 9 / 41
</span><span>cos (theta) = 0.21951...
</span>theta = cos^-1(<span>0.21951...)
</span><span>theta = 77.3 degrees

</span><span>(b) Find the height above the ground where the plank touches the wall. Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.
</span><span>
Height = square root (plank^2 - ground^2)
Height = square root (41^2 - 8^2)
</span><span>Height = square root (1600)
</span><span>Height = 40

(A) 77.1 Degrees
(B) 40 feet</span>
