Kayson is looking at two buildings, building A and building B, at an angle of elevation of 73°. Building A is 30 feet away, and

building B is 35 feet away. Which building is taller and by approximately how many feet? Building A; it is around 16.35 feet taller than building B Building A; it is around 114.48 feet taller than building B Building B; it is around 16.35 feet taller than building A Building B; it is around 114.48 feet taller than building A

Answer:

The correct option is:

Building B; it is around 16.35 feet taller than building A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consult the diagram below where the first figure represent building A and second figure represents building B

For building A:

tan θ = Perpendicular / Base

tan 73° = Height of building A / 30

Height of building A = tan73 · 30

Height of building A = 98.13 ft

For building B:

tan θ = Perpendicular / Base

tan 73° = Height of building B / 35

Height of building A = tan73 · 35

Height of building A = 114.48 ft

Building B is taller

Difference in height = height of building B - height of building A

Difference in height = 114.48 - 98.13 = 116.35 feet

Please can anyone send a question in law of indices I really need it now​
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

I think this is a pretty good question of law of indices

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(9^p)(27^q)=3^n\\

a) express n in terms of p and q ,

b) hence if p = 1 and q = 2 find the value of n

Solution to part a)

(9^p)(27^q)=3^n\\\\

Simplify the equation and how do we do that? As we can see that 9 can also be written as 3^2 and 27 can be written as 3^3 we can rewrite the following equation like this,

(3^2)^p(3^3)^q=3^n\\

now we multiply p with 2 and

multiply q with 3 respectively,

(3^{2p})(3^{3q})=3^n\\

now since the bases are same and are multiplying the exponents will add themselves like this, in this equation the number 3 is the base

3^{2p+3q}=3^n\\

now since the bases on the left hand side and on the right hand side are equal the exponents will also be equal so now,

2p+3q=n\\

hence n is expressed in terms of p and q

Solution to part b)

if p = 1 and q = 2 we plug in these values in the above equation we found for n

n = 2p + 3q

n = 2(1) + 3(2)

n = 2 + 6

n = 7
