Imagine that you are standing at the top of a cliff that is 1,500 feet above sea level. You see ship A, and your eyes make an an

Distance of A from cliff = 1500·arctan(30°) ≅ 723.5 ft

distance of B from cliff = 723.5+1000√3 ≅ 2455.6 ft
tanθ = 2455.6/1500 = 1.637
θ = arctan(1.637) ≅ 58.6°
angle of depression = 90-θ ≅ 30°

By what percent will the fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and denominator is decreased by 20% ?
seropon [69]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x.

x = x/1

Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.

Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.

The new fraction is

1.6x/0.8

Do the division.

1.6x/0.8 = 2x

The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.

The increase is 100%.

Given: ABCD is a trapezoid, m∠1=m∠2, m∠3=m∠4, AB = CD, AC ∩ BD = O <br> Prove: m∠AOD = m∠BCD
LiRa [457]
Since AB = CD the trapezoid is isosceles, which means that ∡A = ∡D

Therefore also ∡2 = ∡3 (they are half of the congruent angles)

For the properties of parallel lines (BD and AD) crossed by a transversal (BD) we have ∡3 = ∡CBD.

Now consider triangles AOD and BCD:
∡OAD (2) = ∡ADO (3) = ∡CBD (3) = ∡CDB (4)

T<span>he sum of the angles of a triangle must be 180°, t</span>herefore:
∡AOD = 180 - ∡2 - ∡3
∡BCD = 180 - ∡3 - ∡4

∡AOD = ∡BCD because their measure is the difference of congruent angles.
