answer is 1.566 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation is given by the formula

tanθ = height/distance

tanθ = H/ 240

tanθ × 240 = H

θ =( tan∧-1) 240

= <u>1.566 deg</u>

Length of a rectangle is 5 cm longer than the width. Four squares are constructed outside the rectangle such that each of the sq

Answer:

The perimeter of rectangle is $18\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of the rectangle

y----> the width of the rectangle

we know that

$x=y+5$ ----> equation A

$120=xy+2x^{2}+2y^{2}$ ---> equation B (area of the constructed figure)

substitute the equation A in equation B

$120=(y+5)y+2(y+5)^{2}+2y^{2}$

$120=(y+5)y+2(y+5)^{2}+2y^{2}\\ 120=y^{2}+5y+2(y^{2}+10y+25)+2y^{2}\\ 120=y^{2}+5y+2y^{2}+20y+50+2y^{2}\\120=5y^{2}+25y+50\\5y^{2}+25y-70=0$

using a graphing calculator -----> solve the quadratic equation

The solution is

$y=2\ cm$

Find the value of x

$x=y+5 ----> x=2+5=7\ cm$

Find the perimeter of rectangle

$P=2(x+y)=2(7+2)=18\ cm$
