Complete Question
The length of the guy wire supporting a cell tower is 120 m. The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 m from the base of the tower to the nearest hundredth of a meter how tall is the tower?
Answer:
89.44m
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question using the Pythagoras Theorem
This is given as:
Hypotenuse² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²
Hypotenuse = Length of the guy wire = 120m
Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tower = 80m
Opposite = Height of the building = x
Hence:
120² = x² + 80²
Collect like terms
x² = 120² - 80²
x = √120² - 80²
x = √(8000)
x = 89.4427191 m
Approximately the height of the tower is = 89.44m
Answer:
1100 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 35=.05x-20
Why? x is the amount of minutes on his phone. Each minute is 0.05 hence 0.05x. Subtract 20 because that is the flat rate
55=.05x
x=1100
Therefore he was on his phone for 1100 minutes
Answer:
The center is [-1,-2
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given area of the ribbon = 144 square inches.
We know formula for side of a square =
.
Plugging value of area in the formula, we get
Side of the square 
= 12 inches.
Sonya wants to sew ribbon along each side of a square pillow.
So, we need to find the perimeter of the square pillow.
<h3>Perimeter = 4 × side = 4 × 12 = 48 inches.</h3><h3>Therefore, she buy 48 inches of ribbon to have the exact amount that she needs.</h3>
The perimeter would be about 34.4 because if you choose the bottom side to be ten, by multiplying 35 by 2 to get 70 you can divide by 10 to get 7. Since you know the height and width, you can use pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Plug in the numbers you have 10^2+7^2=c^2. c^2=149, so if you square root 149 you will get a irrational number but when rounded you get 12.2- so that is one side multiply by 2 and get 24.4- and add 10 to get 34.4
