Answer:Since the vehicles are travelling in the exact opposite direction, the sum of their rates is the rate at which they are separating. 48 + 64 = 112 miles per hour of separation.

728 miles ÷ 112 miles/hour = 6.5 hours

In triangle RST, angle R is a right angle. If TR = 6 and TS = 8, what is the length of RS
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

RS = 2\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

RS² + RT² = TS² , that is

RS² + 6² = 8²

RS² + 36 = 64 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

RS² = 28 ( take the square root of both sides )

RS = \sqrt{28} = \sqrt{4(7)} = 2\sqrt{7} ≈ 5.3 ( to 1 dec. place )

from a window 24 feet above the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of another building is 38 degrees. The distance betwee
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The  height of the building is 73.2\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{AB}

we have

AB=63\ ft

substitute and solve for BC

tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{63}

BC=(63)tan(38\°)=49.2\ ft

Find the height of the building

The  height of the building (h) is equal to

h=BC+24=49.2+24=73.2\ ft
