Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is attached.

Looking at the diagram, we want the side "opposite" of the angle given and the side "adjacent" is given.

Which ratio relates opposite and adjacent? It is Tan.

We can use trigonometry and tan ratio to solve for the distance "x":

Tan(84)=\frac{x}{650}\\x=Tan(84)*650\\x=6184.4

D is the correct answer.

What is the area of the shaded region?
jolli1 [7]

Hello!

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2 />

\boxed{ \bf The~area~of~the~shaded~region~is~B.~24 mm^2}

______________________________________________________

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

To find the area of the shaded region, we must find the area of the inner white triangle and subtract it from the area of the outer blue one.

Outer:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

A =  \frac{1}{2}(12 · 5)

A =  \frac{1}{2}(60)

A = 30 mm²

Inner:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

A = \frac{1}{2}(4 · 3)

A = \frac{1}{2}(12)

A = 6

30 - 6 = 24

Practice determining key aspects of quadratic functions given in factored form. Which point is an x-intercept of the quadratic f
slega [8]
An x intercept occurs whenever y=0.

y=(x-4)(x+2)

So for y=0, x=-2 or 4, so the x-intercepts are:

(-2, 0) and (4, 0)

Only (-2, 0) is within your answer choices.
