A man who is 2 meters tall stands on level ground. He is 32 meters from the base of a tree. The angle of elevation of the top of

the tree from his line of sight is 25 degrees. Which equation can be used to solve for the height of the tree? (h = height of the tree)

Answer:

h = 16.92 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If you mean to man horizontal line of sight  then the height of the tree is:

h = 2m + x

x is one right side and second is distance from the base of a tree 32m.

Tangence in this right triangle is:

tan 25° = x / 32 => x = 32 · tan 25° = 32 · 0.4663 = 14.92m

h = 2 + 14.92 = 16.92m

Answer:

H=16.92 (MARK ME AS BRAINIEST)

Step-by-step explanation:

The side opposite 25° is the height of the tree. The side adjacent to 25° is the distance the man is standing from the tree.

tan 25°=  

opposite side

adjacent side

Let h-2 represent the height of the tree

h - 2) = 32 tan 25°

h - 2 = 14.92

h = 16.92 meters

Which is an equation of the line that passes through the points (5 15) and (10 20)?
faust18 [17]
The generic equation of the line is:
 y-yo = m (x-xo)
 Where,
 m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
 Substituting values:
 m = (20-15) / (10-5)
 m = (5) / (5)
 m = 1
 We choose an ordered pair:
 (xo, yo) = (5, 15)
 Substituting values:
 y-15 = 1 (x-5)
 y = x - 5 + 15
 y = x + 10
 Answer:

The half-life of a radioactive kind of iodine is 60 days. How much will be left after 240 days, if you start with 480 grams of i
exis [7]

Answer:

30 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

half life is 60 days so every 60 days the amount 480 grams will be half

in 240 days will decay  240 /60 = 4 times

once 480 /2 = 240

twice 240 /2 = 120

trice 120 / 2 = 60

four times 60/2 = 30 grams will be left

Answer:16

Explanation:To find X intercept you plus in zero for X since X intercept is the value that the line touches the X axis so knowing this

-2x+8(0)=-32

-2x=-32

-32/-2

How many degrees would you rotate to get from vertex to vertex in a hexagon?
Leokris [45]

Answer:[10] Using the formula (n - 2)180/n for the vertex angle of a regular n-gon, we find that the vertex angle for a regular hexagon is 120 degrees and for a regular octagon it is 135 degrees.
