The height of the trre will be given by:
tan θ=(opposite)/(adjacent)

θ=52°
Adjacent= distance of the golfer to the tree= 10 ft
opposite = height, h, of the tree
thus
tan 52=h/10
hence solving for h we get:
h=10tan52
h=12.799~12.8 ft

A 15-foot log is split into 2 pieces. How long are the pieces if the longest piece is 1.5ft shorter than two of the shorter piec
Allisa [31]

Answer:

8.25 ft & 6.75 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know it's split into two pieces, right? So normally that would be 7.5 ft each. But one is 1.5 ft longer than the other. So as a result, I divided that by 2 to add 0.75 ft to piece one and subtract 0.75 ft from piece two's length. So, the longer piece is 8.25 ft, and the shorter one is 6.75 ft.

Please answer all i need help Factor the expression using the GCF. 50x-60 Next one Factor the expression using the GCF. 16m+40 n
Anton [14]

Answer:

10(5x - 6).

8(2m + 5).

9(3 - 5c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

50x-60

16m+40

27-45c

The greatest common factor is a measure of the highest number present inside, or common to all the numbers that were listed. To take this one at a time, we have....

50x - 60. The highest number common to both of them is 10, and thus, we have

50x - 60 = 10(5x - 6), and this is the solved part.

16m + 40. The greatest number that's present inside both numbers is 8, and thus we have

16m + 40 = 8(2m + 5) and this is the solved part.

27 - 45c. The greatest common number is 9, and as a result, we have

27 - 45c = 9(3 - 5c), and this is the solution we were searching for
