C is the answer yeah yeah
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
to prove if NP is tangent to MN
we could prove if NPM is a right triangle
By pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
where a=MN=33
b=NP=180
c=MP=MQ+QP=152+33=185
so
33^2+180^2=185^2
but
1089+32400 is not equal to 34225
33489 is different from 34225
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply 1166 by 0.2879
Answer:
(a) 169.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...
169.1 m
__
The relevant trig relation is ...
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...
cos(6°) = x/(170 m)
x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m
The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
