The right question is that the lowest altitute is 3^8 feet
You are told that the highest altitude is 3 times the lowest altitude =>
highest altitude = 3 * lowest altitude = 3 * 3^8 feet.
Now you use the ruel of mutiplication of powers with the same base: copy the base and sum the exponents => 3 * 3^8 = 3 ^(1+8) = 3^9.
Note: remember that 3 = 3^1.
Answer: 3^9 feet
98 - x² = 0
x² = 98
x = ±√98
Lets factor 98
98 | 2
49 | 7
7 | 7
1
So, 98 = 2 . 7 . 7 = 2 . 7²
x = ±√2.7²
x = ±7√2
To find the measure of the third angle you should keep in mind the following:
The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is 180 °.
We have then
k + 27 + 10 = 180
Clearing k:
k = 180-27-10 = 143
K = 143 °
Answer:
the value of k is 143 °
