Answer:

18.7939 m

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let x be the distance between John and clock tower.

-Let y be the vertical distance from the eyes of the two men standing to the top of the clock tower.

#Taking the right triangle ACD:

$\Tan \ theta=\frac{Perpendicular \ Height}{Base}\\\\Tan \ 60\textdegree=\frac{y+1.5}{x}\\\\y=x \ Tan \ 60\textdegree -1.5$

#Taking the right triangle ABD:

$\Tan \ theta=\frac{Perpendicular \ Height}{Base}\\\\Tan \ 40\textdegree=\frac{y+1.5}{x+20}\\\\y=(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree -1.5$

#We equate the two yo solve for x and y;

$(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree -1.5=x\ Tan \ 60\textdegree -1.5\\\\(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree=x\ Tan \ 60\textdegree\\\\0.8391x+16.7820=1.7321x\\\\x=18.7939$

Hence, John's distance from the tower's base is 18.7939 m

What’s the answer to 10a - 13a being factored

solmaris [256]

Answer:

a(10 - 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

The only common factor between these numbers is a, as 10 and 13 do not share factors (13 is prime). We can only factor out a.

What is the slope of -y=-x+6

Katarina [22]

Answer:

m = 1
b = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

-y = -x + 6
y = mx + b

First, we need to change the 'y' sign.

=> -y = -x + 6
=> y = x - 6

Now, let's compare both of the equations to find slope.

=> (y = x - 6) = (y = mx + b)

We can see that the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is -6.

Conclusion:

Therefore:

m = 1
b = -6

Hoped this helped.

Answer:

Area of parallelogram is 150 square ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the parallelogram in the figure whose height is 10 ft and base length is 15 ft.

Area of parallelogram is $base \times height$

= $15\times 10ft^2$

= 150 square ft

now we have to decompose this parallelogram into rectangles and triangles and then to determine the shape.

The given parallelogram KLMN can be decomposed into 2 triangles and one rectangle.

2 right angled triangles KPL and NOM by construction

$KL^{2}=KP^{2}+PL^{2}=10^{2}+2^{2} =100+4=104$

⇒ $KL=\sqrt104=10.2 ft=MN$ (∵ KLMN is a parallelogram)

Hence, dimension of triangles are 10 ft, 2 ft and 10.2 ft

Now rectangle KPON with dimension 15 ft and 10 ft because KP and NO are perpendiculars on LM.
