A golfer needs to know how tall a tree is to chip a ball over the tree onto the green in a golf match. his caddie knows that he

is 10 feet from the tree and has an angle of elevation of 52°. what is the height of the tree to the nearest whole number?

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

24^2= 20^2+34^2-2(20)(34)cos(Q)
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: 50 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of the angle Q, you need to follow these steps:

- Knowing that:

-980= -(1,360)cos(Q)

You can divide both sides of the equation by -1,360:

\frac{-980}{-1,360}=\frac{-1,360cos(Q)}{-1,360}\\\\\frac{49}{68}=cos(Q)

- Finally, using  the inverse function of the cosine, Arccosine, we get:

Q=Arcos(\frac{49}{68})\\\\Q=49.89\°

To the nearest whole degree, this is:

Q=50\°

True or false. The equation csc^2x-1=cot^2x is an identity.
KatRina [158]
Csc² x - 1 = cot² x
1/ sin² x - 1 = cot² x
( 1 - sin² x ) / sin² x = cot² x
cos² x / sin² x = cot² x
cot² x = cot² x
Answer: True.

What re the answers to 20-30
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

20.

m =  -52

22.

x=13

24.

a=-90

26.

n=-2

28.

a=9

30.

m=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

20. m/4=-13

m = -13*4 = -52

22. -143=-11x

x=-143/-11 =13

24. -5=a/18

a=-5*18= -90

26. n-8=-10

n=--10+8

n=-2

28. a+11=20

a=20-11

a=9

30. 18+m=8

m=8-18

m=-10
