You can consider the tree perpendicular to its shadow, therefore you get a triangle rectangle of which you know the two legs and you need to find the angle between the shadow and the hypothenuse, opposite to the tree.
In this case, the angle α can be easily found with trigonometry:
tan α = (opposite side / adjacent side)
Therefore:
α = tan⁻¹ (tree / shadow) = tan⁻¹ (10 / 14) = 35°
NOTE:
tan⁻¹ is sometimes found written as arctan.
Answer:

(You only need to give one solution)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following equation

First, we need to foil out the parenthesis

Now we can combine the like terms

Now, we need to factor this equation.
To factor this, we need to find a set of numbers that add together to get -3 and multiply to give us -4.
The pair of numbers that would do this would be 1 and -4.
This means that our factored form would be

As the first binomial is a difference of squares, it can be factored futher into

Now, we can get our solutions.
The first binomial will produce two complex (Not real) solutions.


So our solutions to this equation are

<span>There are two solutions.. x=16</span><span> or </span><span>x=−<span>16.</span></span>
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 ⅓ yd²) / (8/9 yd²)
(4/3 yd²) / (8/9 yd²)
(4/3) × (9/8)
3/2
1.5 / 1
Answer: x= -2
Step-by-step explanation: Remove parentheses. Move terms. Collect the like terms. Calculate the sum. Change the signs on both sides of the equation and you should get x= -2.
