Tan(20o) = 200 / L 

L = 200 / tan(20o) 

tan(10o) = H2 / L 

H2 = L * tan(10o) 

= 200 * tan(10o) / tan(20o) 

Height of second building = 200 + 200 * tan(10o) / tan(20o)

It says that the buildings together are 200 meters high and from the top pf the first to bottom of the second is 20(whole building) but from the top of the first to second is 10 (half of the building ) so if the degree if half the high will be half too so the high will be 200/2 = 100 meters high for each buildings :))
i hope this is helpful 
have a nice day

A square piece of plastic has a perimeter of 8 cm. how long is each side of the piece of plastic?​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a square, all four sides are equal and its perimeter is just

P=4s, so if P=8 then

4s=8, dividing each side by 4 we get

s=2

So each side of the plastic square is 2 centimeters.

CD has endpoints C(-3, 4) and D(1, -2). Find the coordinates<br> of its midpoint.
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Midpoint (-1 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: (midpoint)

Let the point A(x , y) be the midpoint of CD.

x=\frac{x_c+x_D}{2} =\frac{-3+1}{2} =\frac{-2}{2} =-1

y=\frac{x_C + y_D}{2} =\frac{4+(-2)}{2} =\frac{2}{2} =1

Then

A(-1 , 1)

Answer:

4r + 4(r + 3) = 68

r = 7 miles per hour

r + 3 = 10 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate * time

a)

4r + 4(r + 3) = 68

Distribute

4r + 4r + 12 = 68

8r + 12 = 68

8r = 56

r = 7 miles per hour

r + 3 = 10 miles per hour
