Answer:

343.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The wire is anchored 190 -13 = 177 ft from the ground. That distance is opposite the given angle (31°). The measure you want is the hypotenuse of the triangle with that side and angle measures.

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the relation between the opposite side, hypotenuse, and angle is ...

Sin(angle) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Filling in the given information, you have ...

sin(31°) = (177 ft)/hypotenuse

Solving for hypotenuse gives

hypotenuse = (177 ft)/sin(31°) ≈ 343.7 ft

The length of the guy wire should be 343.7 ft.

The area of the triangle is given as: ≈ 70.50cm²

<h3>What is the explanation to the above solution?</h3>

Area of shaded region = Area of the sector less Area of the Triangle.

This is represented as:

π r² (∅/360) - 1/2 x b x h

= π x 14² x (46/360) - (1/2) x 14 x 10.0708

= 78.6794 - 70.4956

= 8.1838 cm²

Hence, the area of the triangle is (1/2) x 14 x 10.0708

= 70.4956 cm²

7=0.5 |x-4| -3
+3                +3
10=0.5 |x-4|
10/0.5=0.5/0.5 |x-4|
20=|x-4|
             ^
-20=x-4   20=x-4
 +4    +4    +4    +4
-16=x       24=x

The answers are -16=x and 24=x

Question shown in pic attached!
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: <B= 101, <C= 79, <D=101

Step-by-step explanation: all parallelograms have the diagonal angles equal so that is why <c=79. Parallelograms also have all angles equal to 360. so if you add <C, and <A you have 158. then you subtract that from 360 and you get 202. You then need to divide it by to to get the measures of angles B and D which are 101 each.
