Sine rule

a/Sin(A) = b/Sin(B) = c/Sin(C)
     b
 C / |
a / _| A 
    B  c

We know that a = 70 degrees and A = 25 foot
So 70/Sin(25) = Something
We also know we want C, and that c = 90 degrees
So 70/Sin(25) = 90/Sin(C)
Then you have to rearrange the equations. Start with Multiply all by Sin(C)
So [Sin(C)][70/Sin(25)] = 90
Then divide everything by 70/Sin(25)
So Sin(C) = 90/[70/Sin(25)]
Now you want to isolate C, so Sin-1 everthing
So C = Sin-1{90/[70/Sin(25)]}
So C = 32.91309534
To the nearest tenth, 32.9ft
Hope that helps :)

HELPPPP <br><br>which value is equal to 2✓28-5✓63?<br><br>a-37✓7<br>b-✓7<br>c-11✓7<br>d✓7​
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand this right, then the expression is

2×sqrt(28) - 5×sqrt(63)

let's look for squared factors in the numbers under the square roots.

28 = 4×7 (4 is a squared number)

63 = 9×7 (9 is a squared number)

so,

2×sqrt(4×7) - 5×sqrt(9×7) =

= 2×2×sqrt(7) - 5×3×sqrt(7) = 4×sqrt(7) - 15×sqrt(7) =

= (4 - 15)×sqrt(7) = -11×sqrt(7)

If $396 is invested at an interest rate of 13% per year and is compounded continuously, how much will the investment be worth in
Vilka [71]

Answer:  First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount invested = $396

Interest rate = 13% per year

Time = 3 years

We will use the "Exponential growth formula" i.e.

A=Pe^{rt}

Here,

P denotes Principle amount

r denoted rate of growth

t  denotes number of years,

So, it becomes

A=396e^{0.13\times 3}\\\\A=396e^{0.69}\\\\A=\$584.88

Hence, First option is correct.
