Answer:

1. B

2. B

Step-by-step explanation:

** Attached picture of the situation

The bird caught the fish at point A, flew until B (which is 100 yds away, dropped the fish at C (which is horizontally 50 yards from A).

1.

We want the angle that the bird creates with the water (horizontal). It is angle BAC. With respect to the right triangle, we can say that we know "hypotenuse" and "adjacent" side to angle BAC. cosine relates hypotenuse and adjacent, thus we can write:

Cos(BAC)=\frac{50}{100}\\Cos(BAC)=\frac{1}{2}\\BAC=Cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})\\BAC=60

correct answer is B

2.

Here, we want to find the distance (length) of segment BC. With respect to the angle BAC (we found to be 60), we can say BC is "opposite". We know hypotenuse to be 100. So let's use sine, since sine is ratio of opposite to hypotenuse. Thus, we can write:

Sin(BAC)=\frac{BC}{100}\\Sin(60)=\frac{BC}{100}\\BC=Sin(60)*100\\BC=86.6

correct answer is B

Can someone help me on this plzzz
choli [55]

Answer:

b=15

How I got it:

32 + (7x4) = 32 + 28 = 60

60 divided by 4 = 15

Checking:

15 - 7 = 8

8 x 4 = 32

32 = 32

<em>You can tell b = 15 is the correct answer.</em>

MUST BE CORRECT ANSWER HELP ASAP
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

40287600 = B. 4 x 10^{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We first have to do the multiplication of the numbers given:</u>

19 * 2,120,400

=> 40287600

<u>Now we have to figure out how many digits are after the number 4:</u>

4, 0 2 8 7 6 0 0

7 digits

Meaning that we need an exponent of 7 for it to be in scientific notation, giving us with the answer B. 4  x 10^{7}

A semicircle has an area of 76.97 squared km. Find it’s radius
shtirl [24]

Answer:

7 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute:

The equation for area of a semi-circle is \frac{r^{2}\pi }{2}

A =  \frac{r^{2}\pi }{2}

76.97 =  \frac{r^{2}\pi }{2}

Multiply by 2 on both sides:

2(76.97) = ( \frac{r^{2}\pi }{2})2

153.94 = r^{2} \pi

Divide by pi on both sides:

153.94 = r^{2} \pi

/pi           /pi

49.03 ≈ r^{2}

Find the square root:

\sqrt{49.03} =\sqrt{r^{2} }

7 = r
