A shooting star forms a right triangle with the Earth and the Sun, as shown below:

Mathematics
1 answer:
frez [133]3 years ago

The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given

Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known

Here, if we use cos x = \frac{Base}{Hypotenuse} we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star

Note: cos values for each x are definite.

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$1200.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kiersten runs a website that helps people learn programming. Every month, Kiersten receives a subscription fee of $10 from each of the subscribers to her website.

First of all we will find the number of subscribers for this month.

\text{Total number of subscribers this month}=100+30-10

\text{Total number of subscribers this month}=130-10=120

Now let us multiply number of total subscribers of this month by 10 to find the amount Kiersten will earn by her online business.

\text{Kiersten's earnings this month from online business}=120*10

\text{Kiersten's earnings this month from online business}=1200

Therefore, Kiersten will earn $1200 this month by her online business.
