agpole, as shown below: Two ropes, AD and BD, are tied to a peg on the ground at point D. The other ends of the ropes are tied to points A and B on a flagpole. Angle ADC measures 45 degrees, and angle BDC measures 30 degrees. The length of DC is 5 multiplied by square root of 3. Angle ADC measures 45°, and angle BDC measures 30°. What is the distance between the points A and B on the flagpole?. A. 3.66 feet B.13.66 feet C. 8.66 feet D. 5 feet

Answer:

  A.  3.66 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using trigonometry, we know that ...

  BC = DC·tan(30°)

  AC = DC·tan(45°)

  AB = AC -BC = DC(tan(45°) -tan(30°))

  AB = 5√3·(1 -√3/3) = 5(√3 -1)

  AB ≈ 3.66 . . . feet

a cookie company packages its cookies in a rectangular prism box designed with square bases which have both a length and a width
erastovalidia [21]
Represent your unknowns:  Let s be the length of one side of the box.  The relationship between s and x is s = x-4.

The volume of the box is (length)(width)(height), which here equals the following:  V(x) = (x-4)*(x-4)*(x).  You may either leave this result as is, or shorten it to V(x) = (x-4)^2*x, or expand (x-4)*(x-4)*(x).

Is the golden ratio a coincidence or grand design
DENIUS [597]
The Golden number is one of the roots of x²-x-1=0 and x = (1+√5)/2= 1.618
It's just a mathematical constant you can come across in trigonometry, geometry, sequence like Fibonacci and others. You may find it in fractals also and in many shapes in the nature but not necessarily always true.

It might be a coincidence in some natural shapes, but definitely it is a recognized math contant useful in many math domains

Does the graph represent a function? why or why not?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The answer should be c

Step-by-step explanation:

whenever you are trying to determine whether a graph determines a function or not, just draw a vertically straight line through the graph's line. If you draw that line and it goes through the graph's line more than once, then the graph does not represent a function.

A Ferris wheel has 20 cars that are equally spaced around the circumference of the wheel. The wheel rotates so that the car at t
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The Ferris wheel rotates 18° between successive cars being at the bottom.

Explanation:

 Angle inside a circle = 360°

 No of cars in a Ferris wheel = 20

 When the bottom of the ride is replaced by the next car, the angle rotated by Ferris wheel is same as the angle between two consecutive cars towards center of Ferris wheel.

  Angle between two consecutive cars of Ferris wheel = 360/20 = 18°

 The Ferris wheel rotates 18° between successive cars being at the bottom.
