Answer:

343.66m

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the diagram attached

|AC| is the length of the radio transmission tower

If the wire is attached 13 feet from the top, at point B, |BC|=177cm and the wire is attached at point D on the ground

In Triangle BCD,

Sin \alpha = \frac{|BC|}{|BD|}

Sin 31 = \frac{177}{|BD|}

Cross multiplying

|BD| X sin 31 = 177\\|BD|=\frac{177}{Sin 31} =343.66m

Which radian measure is equivalent to −15°? −9π/20 −12/π −20π/9 −π/12
Reika [66]

Answer:

<h3>-π/12</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Which radian measure is equivalent to −15°? −9π/20 −12/π −20π/9 −π/12

180 degrees = πrad

-15 degrees = x

Cross multiply

180x = -15π

x = -15π/180

x = -π/12

Hence the value of -15 degrees in radians is -π/12

Two consecutive integers have a product of 132.Find the integers
maksim [4K]
The difference between consecutive integers is 1.
Let x = smaller integer.
Then x + 1 is the next greater consecutive integer.

x(x + 1) = 132

x^2 + x - 132 = 0

(x + 12)(x - 11) = 0

x + 12 = 0   or   x + 11 = 0

x = -12   or   x = -11

Since x is the smaller of the two integers, the answers are:
-12, -11
11, 12
There are two pairs of such integers.
