State two immediate responses to a tectonic hazard that could reduce the number of deaths
nata0808 [166]
A tectonic hazard would be something that isn't expected but only lasts so long.
Example: an earthquake or tsunami
The best example is an earthquake
Immediate responses would be to take shelter under a sturdy building or get to high grounds where nothing can fall on you.
The number of deaths could be reduced by having regular safety checks of buildings and if you know you are near tectonic plate shifting then the building should be built with study material.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Delta

Explanation:

Delta is a geographical term that describes the formation of wetlands. It is formed from the slow movement of water and deposit from a river into a larger water body. For example lake, sea and ocean. A vivid example is a place where the River Nile moves at a slower pace into the Mediterranean Sea.

Hence, in this case, as a river reaches its mouth it is often affected by incoming tides resulting in a formation called a DELTA.

You're building a 12 foot ramp to the entrance of a building 3 feet above the ground. The ADA regulations require the incline of
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can assume that:

the 12 foot ramp to the entrance of a building is the base of a right angled triangle and the  3 feet above the ground should be the height above the ground basement. The by using the tangent of a triangle from the knowledge of our trigonometric function; we have:

\mathbf{tan  \ \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}}

\mathbf{tan  \ \theta = \frac{3}{12}} \\ \\ \mathbf{tan  \ \theta = 0.25 } \\ \\ \mathbf{\theta = tan^{-1} (0.25)} \\ \\ \mathbf{\theta = 14.04^o}

The degree measure of the angle of elevation is 14.04°

NO, it doesn't fit the requirements.

We can increase the foot ramp to 34 feet instead of being the 12 given value in order to fit the requirements.
