Create a right triangle.

The height of the leg will be 1250 feet. We are given an angle of depression of 47°, so we can draw an imaginary line parallel to the base of the triangle.

By the AIA Theorem, the angle of the bottom right side of the right triangle will be 47 degrees.

We want to find the distance between the coast and the island. In other words, find the length of the base of the triangle. We can do so with trigonometric ratios.

tan47 = 1250/x

x = 1166.

On Monday Billy spent 4 1/4 hour study on Tuesday he spent another 3 5/9 hour study what is the combined time he spent studying
sweet [91]

Answer: the combined time he spent studying is 281/36 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to convert all mixed numbers to improper fraction.

On Monday Billy spent 4 1/4 hour study. Converting 4 1/4 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 17/4 hours.

On Tuesday he spent another 3 5/9 hour study. Converting 3 5/9 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 32/9 hours.

The combined time he spent studying answer as a mixed number would be

17/4 + 32/9 = (153 + 128)/36

= 281/36 hours

The area of the square is 9 in^2

The side of a square is the square root of the area.

Side of square = √9 = 3 inches.

The side of the square is the diameter of the inscribed circle.

Circumference of a circle is PI x diameter.

Circumference of inscribed circle = 3.14 x 3 = 9.42 inches

The diameter for the circumscribed circle would be the diagonal of the square which is 3√2 =  ( Side length x √2) ≈ 4.2426

The circumference = 3.14 x 3√2 = 13.321

Find the ratio between the two circles:

Circumscribed / inscribed =

13.321 / 9.42 = 1.41
