Set up a right triangle. the height is one side of triangle, its length is 400.
The angle opposite to the 400 is 14.3 degrees. The adjacent side is distance across, "x"

Use tangent ratio
tan(14.3) = \frac{400}{x}

x  = \frac{400}{tan (14.3)}

Find the lateral surface area of the figure.
Brut [27]

Surface area of the cylinder = 816.4 sq. ft.

Solution:

Height of the cylinder = 21 ft

Diameter of the cylinder = 10 ft

Radius of the cylinder = 10 ÷ 2 = 5 ft

Use the value of \pi = 3.14

Surface area of the cylinder = 2 \pi r h+2 \pi r^{2}

Substitute the given values in the surface area formula, we get

Surface area of the cylinder $=2\times3.14\times 5\times 21+2 \times3.14\times 5^2

                                               =659.4+157

                                               =816.4 ft²

Hence the surface area of the cylinder is 816.4 sq. ft.

The following stem-and-leaf plots compare the ages of 30 actors and 30 actresses at the time they won the Oscar award for Best A
stealth61 [152]

The image of the stem-and-leaf plots is in the attachment.

Answer: (a) 31 years; (b) 59 years; (c) 56 years

Step-by-step explanation: Steam and leaf is a table that shows the digits of the data value split into a "stem", which represents the first digit, and a "leaf", which is the last digit.

For example, the first row of the table in the attachment, indicate a "stem" 2 and the first number of a "leaf" is 1, so the actress has 21 years.

(a) According to the table, the youngest actor to win an Oscar has a "stem" 3 and the first "leaf" from the right is 1, so the actor has 31 years.

(b) The oldest actress is 80 and the youngest is 21, so difference is:

80 - 21 = 59

The difference is 59 years.

(c) The oldest age shared by 2 actors is 56 years.
