Two buildings are 200 feet apart. The height of the taller building is 50 ft. The angle of depression from the top of the taller

building to the top of the shorter building is 8°. What equation below will correctly determine the height (h) of the shorter building? A. h = 50 – 200(tan 8°) B. h = 50 – 200(cos 82°) C. h = 50 – 200(tan 82°) D. h = 50 – 200(sin 82°)

Answer A

Let height of shorter building is 'h' feet

angle of depression is 8

in right triangle ABC,

tan 8 = altitude / base = (50-h)/200

on re arranging the equation

h =  50 - 200* tan(8)

39. State the equation for the line described below.
devlian [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

39). y = -\frac{7}{8} x + 3

40). m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

y - y_{1} = m( x - x_{1} )

(- 7, 5)

( - 12, 4)

m = ( 4 - 5 ) / ( - 12 + 7) = 1/5

y - 5 = (1/5)(x + 7) ⇒ y = \frac{1}{5} x + 6.4

The center of the circle is (h,k) = (-2,-3)

The radius of the circle is r = 2

The standard form of equation of the circle is

{(x + 2)}^{2}  +  {(y + 3)}^{2}  = 4

<h3>How to find the center, radius and standrad form of the circle?</h3>

The general form of equation of the circle is

{(x - h)}^{2}  +  {(y - k)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

Here, (h,k) means centre of the circle.

r means radius of the circle.

given that coordinate points of centre of circle is (-2,-3).

Hence the (h,k) = (-2,-3)

<h3>How to find the radius of the circle?</h3>

Now to find the radius of the circle

The distance from a circle's centre to its circumference is its radius.

The distance from a circle's centre (-2,-3) to its circumference (0,-3) is its radius.

using the formula, distance between the two points to obtain radius.

d =  \sqrt{(x1 - x2) {}^{2}  +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2} }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {( - 2 - 0)}^{2} +  {( - 3 - ( - 3))}^{2}  }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2} +  {( - 3 + 3)}^{2}  }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {4}^{2} + 0 }  \\ r =  \sqrt{4}  \\ r = 2

<h3>How to find the standard form of equation of the circle?</h3>

(h,k) = (-2,-3)

r = 2

subtitue the (h,k) and r values to get the standard form of equation of the circle.

(x - h) {}^{2}  +  {(y - k)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

{(x - ( - 2))}^{2}  +  {(y - ( - 3))}^{2} =  {r}^{2}

{(x + 2)}^{2}  +  {(y + 3)}^{2}  = 4

What are the x intercepts of the quadratic function? Y=-x^2+2x-1
saw5 [17]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question the equation

y = -x² + 2x - 1

To find the x-intercept, substitute in 0 for y

0 = -x² + 2x - 1

To find value of x use quadratic equation

x = -b ± √b²-4ac / 2a

  here a = -1

           b = 2

           c = -1

x1 = -2 + √2²-4(-1)(-1) / 2(-1)

   = -2 + 0 / -2

   = -2 / -2

   = 1

x2 = -2 - √2²-4(-1)(-1) / 2(-1)

   = -2 - 0 / -2

   = -2 / -2

   = 1
