A hot air balloon is flying at and altitude of 2101 feet. If the angle of depression from the pilot in the balloon to a house on

the ground below is 31°, how far is the house from the pilot?

The problem is modelled as right angle triangle, shown in the diagram below

The distance between the pilot and the house is labelled as x

Using the trigonometry ratio of sine
sin(31)= \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
sin(31)= \frac{2010}{x}
x= \frac{2101}{sin(31)} = 4079.3 ft

I believe it would be dilated by 3/4

If you think of a rectangle, let’s say it is 8 by 4, the perimeter of this rectangle would be 24.

Now if you dilate the side values, you get 6 by 3 and the perimeter equals 18

So you then get 18/24 which is equal to 3/4

Hope this is right and makes sense! Have a good day!

3. What is the slope of a line that passes<br> through (0,-5) and (8,27)?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = difference in y coordinates / difference in the corresponding x coordinates

(27 - (-5)) / (8 - 0)

= 32 / 8

= 4.

sam cut a pie into equal slices.There are only three slices left.The angle measure for the three slices is 72 degrees.how many s
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Sam sliced the pie into 15 equal slices

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sam cut a pie into equal slices.There are only three slices left.The angle measure for the three slices is 72 degrees.

We have to determine the number of slices that the Sam cuts.

Sam cuts a pie and pie is in shape of circle therefore total angle measure is 360°.

Since, Given the angle measure for the three slices is 72 degrees.

So, The angle measure for the one slices is \frac{72}{3}=24 degrees.

Since, Pie is cut into equal slices.

So, measure of each slice must be equal.

So let he cut x slices of pie of 24°

So , total measure of x slices must be equal to 360°

24 · x = 360

x = 15

Thus, Sam sliced the pie into 15 equal slices
