Answer:

The bird is at a height of 1.95 km from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the distance between susan and mark is 7 km and bird is between  susan and mark. The angles of elevation they make are 20º and 50º, respectively.

Draw a perpendicular line from the bird on base.

Let the distance of susan from and the altitude be x.

In triangle ABS,

tan(20^{\circ})=\frac{AB}{x}

tan(20^{\circ})x=AB

0.364x=AB       ..... (1)

In triangle ABM,

tan(50^{\circ})=\frac{AB}{7-x}

1.192(7-x)=AB     ..... (2)

From (1) and (2), we get

0.364x=1.192(7-x)

1.556x=8342

x=5.36

The length of AB is,

AB=0.364(5.36)=1.95147\approx 1.95

Therefore, the he bird is at a height of 1.95 km from the ground.

Did I do this correct???
kondor19780726 [428]
The answer is actually D. Since 2.5 is a side of each tiny block, there is 3 sides that you are going to multiply together. There is 5,2 and 4 because we are multiplying the length,width and side. So the length is 2.5*5=12.5 which was correct. The width is 2.5*4=10 which you had but you crossed it out. Then lastly you are looking for the side of the shape. 2.5*2=5. Now that I have everything I just need to multiply everything together. 12.5*10*5=625 in³. I hope this helped you!

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The correct option is - content analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Dr. Jones is having his students use: content analysis.

Content analysis is a type of research technique, where we make similar and valid inferences by coding and interpreting information in text forms.

Here Dr. Jones is asking his students to gather information to identify the violent acts in each cartoon show. So, the students will be gathering content or information and then they will come to some inference.
