Answer:
x/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2xy^4/4y^4
y^4 cancels out from both the numerator and denominator
2x/4
Divide 2 on both sides
x/2

15 to the negative 7th
Step-by-step explanation:
1/15^7
15 to the negative 7th
Answer: 212 feet
Have a look at the image shown below. On that image, I've marked key details to focus on. Namely, the bottom right triangle has the angle CAB equal to 27 degrees because of the congruent alternate interior angles. This is the reference angle we'll base everything off of.
Opposite this angle is the side BC = 108 which is the lighthouse height. Adjacent to this angle is AB = x which is unknown. The goal is to solve for x
Use the tangent rule
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(angle CAB) = CB/AB
tan(27) = 108/x <--- substitution
x*tan(27) = 108 <--- multiply both sides by x
x = 108/tan(27) <--- divide both sides by tan(27)
x = 211.96 <-- see note below
x = 212
note: use a calculator that has the trig functions sine, cosine, etc. You'll use the tan function for tangent. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. the result you get is approximate as shown above, which will round to 212 when rounding to the nearest whole number.
The area of the triangle is 4.75.
You times 1.9 (the height) and 5 (the base) then divide the product by 2.
A = 1.9km x 5km / 2
