Answer:

The height of the totem tree is approximately 172.8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

To find the height of the totem pole, we need to use our date to make a pictorial representation so that we can know if the pole and base makes a right angle triangle with the angle of elevation.

See attached document for better illustration.

Let T represent the height of the pole.

Using trigonometric ratio,

SOHCAHTOA, we can use tangent since we have our adjacent and we're to solve for the opposite.

Tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

Opposite = T

Adjacent = 20ft

θ = 83.4°

Tan83.4 = T / 20

T = 20Tan83.4

T = 20 × 8.64

T = 172.8ft

The height of the totem tree is approximately 172.8ft

Answer:

A) When using the shell​ method, the axis of the cylindrical shells is parallel to the axis of revolution. True.

The Shell method is a technique used to find the volume of a solid of revolution. Here, we take thin shells with axis coinciding with the axis about which the region whose volume is to be found, is revolved.

B) If a region is revolved about the​ y-axis, then the shell method must be used. False.

This method can be used with any axis of rotation.

C) If a region is revolved about the​ x-axis, then in principle it is possible to use the​ disk/washer method and integrate with respect to x or the shell method and integrate with respect to y. True.

The washer method uses thin disks with infinite width but the shell method uses thin concentric shells with infinite width about the axis of revolution. So, the statement is true.

Lets solve the equation first:
<span> 0.5 – |x – 12| = –0.25
</span>= 1/2 - |x - 12| = -1/4
= 2 - 4<span>|x - 12| = -1
= 4|x - 12| = 3
= |x - 12| = 0.75
positive case, x >= 12
x - 12 = 0.75
x = 12.75
negative case, x < 12
x - 12 = -0.75
x = 11.25
So those are the two solutions.
These apply:
</span>1.) The equation will have no solutions.
2.) A good first step for solving the equation is to subtract 0.5 from both sides of the equation.
<span>3.) A good first step for solving the equation is to split it into a positive case and a negative case.
</span><span>5.) The negative case of this equation is x – 12 = –0.75.</span>

<em>Answer:</em>

∠WVR = 156

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

Angles in a triangle add up to 180

∴ ∠SRT + RST + RTS = 180

∴ ∠SRT + 109 + 47 = 180

∠SRT = 24

Alternate Angle Theorem

∠SRT = 180 - ∠WVR

24 = 180 - ∠WVR

24 - 180 = - ∠WVR

-156 = - ∠WVR

∠WVR = 156

Have a beautiful day.
