Answer:

the base of the tree from a stake anchoring the wire is 18.7 ft long

Step-by-step explanation:

A guy wire for a tree is 20 ft. long, making a 21 degree angle with the ground.

It forms a right angle triangle. the hypotenuse of the triangle is 20 ft

The adjacent side of the given angle 21 degree is the base of the tree from a stake

Let x be the base length

cos(theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

cos(21)=\frac{x}{20}

20cos(21)=x

x=18.7

the base of the tree from a stake anchoring the wire is 18.7 ft long

The table shows the distance Shannon ran over a week.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Shannon run 1.5 km more on Friday than on Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table

  • Distance run on Friday = 4/2 = 2 km
  • Distance run on Saturday = 1/2 = 0.5 km

  • In order to run how many more kilometers Shannon run on Friday than on Saturday, we need to subtract the distance run on Saturday from the distance run on Friday.

i.e.

Friday run - Saturday run =  2 - 0.5

                                          = 1.5 km

Thus, Shannon run 1.5 km more on Friday than on Saturday.
