Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we think about a right triangle, we get that the hypotenuse is 24ft or the length of the ladder. The base of the ladder is 15ft away from the building which is the leg of the right triangle. The screenshot is the diagram (my drawing isn't that good lol:))
Thus we can use cosine function with the angle between the ladder and the ground since we need to find the angle and we get
and 
The angle is 51.3 degrees hope that helps!
Answer:
The one-fourth of one round of cheddar cheese
Step-by-step explanation:
Because if we cut every round in 4 equal pieces, 4x3=12, we will have 12 equal pieces of cheddar cheese.
A.) To find the maximum height, we can take the derivative of h(t). This will give us the rate at which the horse jumps (velocity) at time t.
h'(t) = -32t + 16
When the horse reaches its maximum height, its position on h(t) will be at the top of the parabola. The slope at this point will be zero because the line tangent to the peak of a parabola is a horizontal line. By setting h'(t) equal to 0, we can find the critical numbers which will be the maximum and minimum t values.
-32t + 16 = 0
-32t = -16
t = 0.5 seconds
b.) To find out if the horse can clear a fence that is 3.5 feet tall, we can plug 0.5 in for t in h(t) and solve for the maximum height.
h(0.5) = -16(0.5)^2 + 16(-0.5) = 4 feet
If 4 is the maximum height the horse can jump, then yes, it can clear a 3.5 foot tall fence.
c.) We know that the horse is in the air whenever h(t) is greater than 0.
-16t^2 + 16t = 0
-16t(t-1)=0
t = 0 and 1
So if the horse is on the ground at t = 0 and t = 1, then we know it was in the air for 1 second.

Answer:
Height = 19mm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a regular polygon = (A * P) / 2 where A = side / (2 * Tan (π / N)) where, N = Number of sides, A = Apothem, P = Perimeter.
Here A = 5, P = 5*12 = 60 so
Area of the base = (5 * 60) / 2 = 150 mm^2.
Volume = area base * height so
Height = volume / area of base
= 2850 / 150
= 19 mm.
