Visitors enter the museum through an enormous glass entryway in the shape of a tetrahedron. The figure shows the dimensions of t

he tetrahedron. The pitch is angle θ. What is the pitch of the tetrahedron’s slanted façade to the nearest degree? (Hint: First find the sides of the big right isosceles triangle with a base of 260 feet. Then, look at the smaller green triangle to find θ using the inverse sine.)

The rest of the question is the attached figure.
Solution:
As shown in the figure
ΔABC is an isosceles right triangle at B
AB = BC and  AC is the hypotenuse ⇒ AC = 260 ft

using Pythagorean theorem 
∴ AC² = AB² + BC² = AB² + AB² = 2 AB²
∴ AB² = AC²/2 = 0.5 AC²
∴ AB = √(0.5 AC²) = √(0.5 * 260²) = 130√2 ft  →(1)

Also as shown in the figure
ΔADB is a right triangle at D
from (1) AB = 130√2 ft
given BD = 105 ft
we should know that ⇒ sin \ \theta =  \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BD}{AB} =  \frac{105}{130 \sqrt{2}} = 0.571

∴ θ = sin⁻¹ 0.571 ≈ 34.82° = 35° ( to the nearest degree )


So, the value of θ = 35°

1 tenth of 70kg is if you help thx
kkurt [141]

it would be 70/100 then it would go down to 7/10 so 1/10 of 70kg would be 7kg because you change 70 you make it a decimal witch is .70 or .7 now make that into a fraction and it would be 70/100 or 7/10 then you take your 7 because its 1/10 of 70. Or you could do it a whole lot easier way and just divide 70 by 10 and get 7. There you have it your answer is 7.

What is the equation in slope-intercept from of the line that passes through the points (-4,47) and (2,-16
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

<h3>Y=-21/2x+5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>SLOPE FORMULA:</em></u>

y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁=rise/run

<u><em>SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM:</em></u>

y=mx+b

m represents the slope.

b represents the y-intercept.

y₂=(-16)

y₁=47

x₂=2

y₁=(-4)

Solve.

\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{(-16)-47}{2-(-4)}=\frac{21}{6}=\frac{21}{2}=-\frac{21}{2}   }}

Furthermore, the y-intercept is 5.

y=-21/2x+5

The correct answer is y=-21/2x+5.
