Answer:
the question answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
here is the correct answer
It appears that the Pythagorean theorem can be applied to this problem
(distance to shadow)² = (height of building)² + (length of shadow)²
(38 m)² = (height of building)² + (28 m)²
660 m² = (height of building)²
Then the height of the building is
height of building = √660 m ≈ 25.7 m
9514 1404 393
Answer:
24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The side adjacent to the angle is given, and the hypotenuse of the triangle is the unknown. The cosine relation applies:
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
hypotenuse = ladder length = (5 ft)/cos(78°) ≈ 24.0 ft
The ladder is about 24 feet long.
Answer:
A. I can't quite see the question, but I'm pretty sure it's A
Step-by-step explanation:
Sin(A) = 1/3
Sin^2(A) + Cos^2(A) = 1
(1/3)^2 + cos^2(A) = 1
1/9 + cos^2(A) = 1
cos^2(A) = 1 - 1/9
cos^2(A) = 8/9
cos(A) = √(8/9)
√8 = √(2 * 2 * 2) = 2√2
√9 = 3
cos(A) = 2√2/3
