<u>Given</u>:

Given that Corey is flying a kite with 105 meters of string.

The string makes an angle of 42° with the ground level.

We need to determine the height of the kite.

<u>Height of the kite: </u>

The height of the kite can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

 sin \ \theta=\frac{opp}{hyp}

From the given data, the values are  \theta=42^{\circ}, opp = h (height of the kite) and hyp = 105 meters.

Substituting the values, we get;

sin \ 42=\frac{h}{105}

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 105, we get;

sin \ 42 \times 105=h

0.669 \times 105=h

        70.245=h

Rounding off to the nearest meter, we get;

h=70

Thus, the height of the kite is 70 meters.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The addition of angles ABD and DBC make up the larger angle ABC. We know that angle ABD = 65 and DBC = 60, therefore

angle ABC = 65 + 60 and

angle ABC = 125 degrees

Does the function f(x) = 2x^2− 6x + 9 have a minimum or a maximum? Identify its value.
exis [7]

Answer:

minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function represents a parabola.

Now, here coefficient of x^{2} is positive , so the parabola will be facing upwards and thus the function will be having a minimum.

Now, as we know that minimum value of a parabolic function occurs at

x = \frac{-b}{4a} .

Where , b represents the coefficient of x and a represents the coefficient of x^{2} .

here, a = 2 , b = -6

Thus \frac{-b}{4a} = \frac{6}{8}

                                            =  \frac{3}{4}

So, at x =  \frac{3}{4}  minimum value will occur and which equals

y = 2×\frac{9}{16} - \frac{18}{4} + 9 =  \frac{45}{8} .

Thus , minimum value of function is   \frac{45}{8} .
