Answer:

  105.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent ratio is the ratio of the side opposite an angle to the adjacent side in a right triangle. Here, the side opposite the angle is the tower height, and the adjacent side is the distance to the tower. Then the appropriate relationship is ...

  tan(38°) = (tower height)/(135 ft)

Multiplying by the denominator gives ...

  tower height = (135 ft)·tan(38°) ≈ 105.473 ft

The height of the tower is about 105.5 feet.

Which function represents a proportional relationship? A) f(x) = 3x 4 B) f(x) = 3 4x C) f(x) = 3x 4 + 3 4 D) f(x) = 3 4x + 3 4
densk [106]

Answer: OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line that passes through the origin is the following:

y=mx

Where "m" is the slope of the line.

By definition, Proportional relationships have the following form:

y=kx

Where "k" is the Constant of proportionality.

Then, as you can notice, if you graph a Proportional relationship you will get a line that passes through the origin.

Therefore, based on the explained above, you can conclude that the option that shows a function  that represents a Proportional relationship is the Option B.

Then, this is:

f(x)=\frac{3}{4}x

Find II 2e-3f II^2 assuming that e & f are unit vectors such that II e +f II=sqrt(3/2).
sergey [27]

<span>We are given that ||e|| = 1, ||f|| = 1. </span>

<span>Since ||e + f|| = sqrt(3/2), we have </span>
<span>3/2 = (e + f) dot (e + f) </span>
<span>= (e dot e) + 2(e dot f) + (f dot f) </span>
<span>= ||e||^2 + 2(e dot f) + ||f||^2 </span>
<span>= 1^2 + 2(e dot f) + 1^2 </span>
<span>= 2 + 2(e dot f). </span>

<span>So e dot f = -1/4. </span>

<span>Therefore, </span>
<span>||2e - 3f||^2 = (2e - 3f) dot (2e - 3f) </span>
<span>= 4(e dot e) - 12(e dot f) + 9(f dot f) </span>
<span>= 4||e||^2 - 12(e dot f) + 9||f||^2 </span>
<span>= 4(1)^2 - 12(-1/4) + 9(1)^2 </span>
<span>= 4 + 3 + 9 </span>
<span>= 16. </span>
