Answer: B is correct, 40 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

70 is the given angle, z is equivalent to that angle, so z is 70. So add those together, and you have 140. According to the rule, a triangle will always add up to 180. So 180-140=40 and there's your answer. Hope this helps!

Emma is standing 10 feet away from the base of a tree and tries to measure the angle of elevation to the top. She is unable to g

Vaselesa [24]

The complete question in the attached figure

step 1
find the tree height for an angle of elevation of 55°
tan 55°=opposite side angle 55°/adjacent side angle 55°
opposite side angle 55°=the tree height h1
adjacent side angle 55°=10 ft
so
tan 55°=h/10-------> h=10*tan 55°-----> h=14.28 ft

step 2
find the tree height for an angle of elevation of 75°
tan 75°=opposite side angle 75°/adjacent side angle 75°
opposite side angle 75°=the tree height h2
adjacent side angle 75°=10 ft
so
tan 75°=h2/10-------> h2=10*tan 75°-----> h2=37.32 ft

therefore

the height of the tree is within the range [14.26,37.32]

Part 1) 4.2 ft

the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Not Reasonable

Part 2) 14.7 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Reasonable

Part 3) 24.4 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Reasonable

Part 4) 33.9 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Reasonable

Part 5) 39.1ft

the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Not Reasonable

Part 6) 58.7 ft

the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
it is Not Reasonable

I have a math problem does anyone know what is. 18 is 50% of____

ohaa [14]

Remember: 50% means 1/2. So, if 18 is 50%, or 1/2, of a number, the number must be double 18.

18 x 2 = 36

18 is 50% of 36.

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h ( t ) = − 4.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

A.) 24.08 seconds

B.) 825.42 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

function of time is given as

h ( t ) = − 4.9 t 2 + 118 t + 115 .

Where a = -4.9, b = 118, c = 115

Let's assume that the trajectory of the rocket is a perfect parabola.

The time t the rocket will reach its maximum height will be at the symmetry of the parabola.

t = -b/2a

Substitute b and a into the formula

t = -118/-2(4.9)

t = 118/9.8

t = 12.041 seconds

Since NASA launches the rocket at t = 0 seconds, the time it will splash down into the ocean will be 2t.

2t = 2 × 12.041 = 24.08 seconds

Therefore, the rocket splashes down after 24.08 seconds.

B.) At maximum height, time t = 12.041s

Substitute t for 12.041 in the function

h ( t ) = − 4.9 t 2 + 118 t + 115

h(t) = -4.9(12.041)^2 + 118(12.041) + 115

h(t) = -4.9(144.98) + 118(12.041) + 115

h(t) = -710.402 + 1420.82 + 115

h(t) = 825.42 metres

Therefore, the rocket get to the peak at 825.42 metres
