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

Given right triangle QRS, what is the value of sin(30°)? StartFraction StartRoot 3 EndRoot Over 3 EndFraction One-half StartFrac
baherus [9]

Answer:

Option 2: \sin(30)=\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

From the triangle shown below;

A triangle QRS with angle QRS = 90°, ∠QSR = 30°.

Side QR = 5, SQ = 10 and RS = 5√3

Now, we know from trigonometric ratio that,

\sin (A) = \frac{Opposite\ side}{Hypotenuse}

Here, opposite side of angle QSR is QR and Hypotenuse is the side opposite angle QRS which is SQ. Therefore,

\sin(\angle QSR)=\dfrac{QR}{SQ}\\\\\\\sin(30)=\dfrac{5}{10}\\\\\\\sin(30)=\dfrac{5}{2\times 5}=\dfrac{1}{2}

Therefore, the value of sine of 30° is one-half. So, second option is correct.
