This problem is solely on right triangles, wherein the Pythagorean theorem may be applied. We must first find the angle of elevation of the flagpole using Tim's height and the difference between the shadow of the flagpole and Tim's distance from the flagpole. Therefore tan a = 1.65/(16.6-12.5) where a=21.68 degrees. We use this angle to determine the height of the flagpole. tan 21.68 = x/ 16.6 where x=height of flagpole=6.6 meters.

I NEED HELP PLS i don’t understand exactly how to do this :/
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

I assume AC = 49.89 since the number is cut off

Step-by-step explanation:

tangent(degree) = opposite / adjacent

To find AC, you can set up tan(29) = AC / CB

tan(29) = AC / 90 (the picture is cutted off, so I assume....)

90*tan(29) = AC

You triple your account balance by making a deposit. Then you withdraw $28.50 from your bank account. Now your account is overdr
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Your original account balance before you made the deposit is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = your original account balance.

You triple your account balance by making a deposit. This means

New account balance = 3 × x = 3x

Then you withdraw $28.50 from your bank account. This means that you have $(3x - 28.5) left.

Now your account is overdrawn by $10.50. This means you have withdrawn beyond what you have in your account. Your new account balance is -$10.5. Therefore,

3x - 28.5 = - 10.5

3x = -10.5 + 28.5 = 18

x = 18/3 = 6

Your original account balance before you made the deposit is $6
