(1) See below for a diagram. Basically, the distance on the ground from the person to the building (34 ft) is adjacent to the angle of elevation (74 degrees) and the height of the building (labeled h in the diagram) is the side opposite the angle. Since we are dealing with opposite and adjacent we use the tangent of the angle and tan = opp/adj
Specifically,

feet.
Please be sure your calculator is set to degrees (not radians) when you do this problem.
(2) Here since P & Q are complimentary it means that their sum is 90 degrees. Since this is a right triangle that means that the remaining angle (R) must be the right angle. See below for a diagram.
sin = opp/hyp. As the sin Q = 9/41 this means that 9 is the length of the side opposite Q (the side PR) and 41 is the length of the hypotenuse. This makes the remaining side (QR) 40 in length.
cos = adj/hyp. If we focus on angle P the side adjacent (next to) is 9 and the hypotenuse is 41. Thus the cos of P = 9/41.
You could have also realized that if P & Q are complimentary the sin P = cos Q and the cos P = sin Q. We were not asked about tangent but it is also the case that tan P = cot Q and cot P = tan Q.
Hello.
The Manager has concluded that 2 out of 25 light bulbs are faulty.The table he created represents the ratio of bulbs checked and which ones were found faulty.
A way that he could verify that the table is correct is by simplifying each ratio. If each of them turn out to 2:25, then the conclusion is correct.
The best answer that matches this is answer choice "C.)" as it also defines our method of verifying the table's validity (just the order of the ratio is reversed, and that's fine as long as the variables are matching as well). We can further prove that this answer is correct by making ratios of our table and simplifying them;
100:8; divide both sides by 4.
25:2
500:40; divide both sides by 20.
25:2
2,000:160; divide both sides by 80.
25:2
This ratio is always the simplified answer.
Your answer is: "C.)"
I hope this helps!
