Answer:
Height of second tower = 17.32m
Step-by-step explanation:
I have attached a diagram depicting the question.
From the diagram, The first tower is depicted by side AEB and the second tower CD.
While d is the distance that separates the two towers and it's given as 15m.
Now, since the angle of depression of the second tower’s base is 60°, then for triangle BAC. Angle C = 60°.
Thus; using trigonometric ratios;
tan 60° = AB/AC.
This gives; AB = d*tan 60°
Similarly, for the triangle BED, BE = d*tan 30°
Since, AE = CD, thus ;
CD = AB − BE
CD = d (tan 60° − tan 30°)
CD = 15(1.7321 − 0.5774)
CD = 15 × 1.1547
CD ≈ 17.32 m.
So, height of second tower = 17.32 m
Convert the fraction 3/4 to decimal form to get 3/4 = 0.75
To factor out 3/4, we divide each term by 3/4 or 0.75
It might be easier to divide by 0.75 to avoid two division symbols
So (3/4)z+6 = 0.75z+6
Divide each term (0.75z and 6) by 0.75 which is what we want to factor out
0.75z/0.75 = z
6/0.75 = 8
Therefore,
0.75z+6 = 0.75*(z+8)
Note how we can distribute the 0.75 back through to each term inside (z and 8) and we'll end up with 0.75z+6 again.
The answer in fraction form is
which is 3/4 outside the parenthesis multiplied by the group (z+8)
To factor out 3/4, we divide each term by 3/4 or 0.75
It might be easier to divide by 0.75 to avoid two division symbols
So (3/4)z+6 = 0.75z+6
Divide each term (0.75z and 6) by 0.75 which is what we want to factor out
0.75z/0.75 = z
6/0.75 = 8
Therefore,
0.75z+6 = 0.75*(z+8)
Note how we can distribute the 0.75 back through to each term inside (z and 8) and we'll end up with 0.75z+6 again.
