Answer: The height of the mountain is 1,331.4 meters (approximately)
Step-by-step explanation: From the information given, the students were standing at point b which is 800 meters from the base of the mountain and the angle of elevation from that point is 59°. Assuming that the ground is level, we can derive a right angled triangle from this set of details and hence we have triangle ABC, where angle β is the reference angle, (59 degrees), BC is the distance from the students to the base of the mountain (800 meters) and the line AC is the height of the mountain.
The line AC is the opposite, since angle B is the reference angle, therefore we shall use the trigonometric ratio as follows;
Tan β = opposite/adjacent
Tan 59 = AC/800
Tan 59 x 800 = AC
1.6643 x 800 = AC
1331.44 = AC
AC ≈ 1331.4
Therefore the height of the mountain is approximately 1,331.4 meters
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The diameter of each curved path is 200 feet. Since the two curved semi circular paths are equal, they would form a circle. It means that the distance around the two semi circular paths would be the circumference of the circle. Formula for determining the circumference of the circle is π × diameter. It becomes
200 × 3.14 = 628 feet
Total distance around the track would be
300 + 300 + 628 = 1228 feet
5280 feet = 1 mile
1228 feet = 1228/5280 = 0.23 mile
If he runs around the track exactly 15 times, it means that the number of miles covered is
0.23 × 15 = 3.45 miles
Since he will collect $4.50 for every mile he runs, the amount of money that he collected is
4.5 × 3.45 = $15.5
