You can use the trig ratios. Draw a diagram to see which one is appropriate. 
Tan would be used.
Tan29=x/20
20Tan29=x
Put this into your calculator and see what you get

What is the length of the hypotenuse?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Hello! answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do to find the answer for these is do a^2+b^2=c^2 Basically meaning 4 × 4 + 3 × 3 will equal a number that you then find the suare root of square root just meaning a number multiplied by itself to equals that number so...

4 × 4 = 16

3 × 3 = 9

16 + 9 = 25

√25 = 5

5 × 5 = 25 therefore c = 5 hope that helps!

The radius r(t)r(t)r, (, t, )of the base of a cylinder is increasing at a rate of 111 meter per hour and the height h(t)h(t)h, (
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at a rate 20π cubic meter per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The radius is increasing at a rate 1 meter per hour.

\dfrac{dr}{dt} = 1\text{ meter per hour}                

The height is decreasing at a rate 4 meter per hour  

\dfrac{dh}{dt} = -4\text{ meter per hour}

At an instant time t,

r = 5 meter

h = 8 meters

Volume of cylinder =

\pi r^2 h

where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Rate of change of volume is given by:

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{d(\pi r^2 h)}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2\pi rh\dfrac{dr}{dt} + \pi r^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}

Putting all the values we get,

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2\pi (5)(8)(1) + \pi (5)^2(-4)\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 80\pi - 100\pi = -20\pi \approx -62.8

Thus, the volume is decreasing at a rate 20π cubic meter per hour or 62.8 cubic meter per hour.
