Ratio of shadow to object's size = 2/7

Then, size of tree would be: 7/2 * 28 = 7 * 14 = 98 feet

So, your final answer is 98 feet

Hope this helps!

Prove that \displaystyle \frac{\cos \theta}{1 + \sin \theta} = \frac{1 - \sin \theta}{\cos \theta}
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

sin^2(θ)+cos^2(θ)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the statement above is true because of the Pythagorean identity theorem, which states the aforementioned equation. If you solve the equation for 1 you get the same equation.

To do this first multiply both sides by cos(θ), this gives you (cos^2θ)/1+sinθ = 1-sinθ

Then, multiply both sides by sinθ. This equals cos^θ=1-sin^2θ.

Finally, add sin^2θ to both sides. This equals the final answer of cos^2θ+sin^2θ=1. Which is true.

Vertex of -2(x+3)^2+7
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The vertex is (-3, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

As the equation is already in 'rectangular form), to work out the vertex, we can just compare this equation to that of the standard parabola y = x^2, and in particular, consider how it has been translated:

the (x+3) part moves the graph the the left 3 (i.e in the negative direction), while the +7 moves the graph up 7.

So as the vertex of the simple parabola y = x^2 is (0,0), the vertex of this graph is just (-3,7).

Note that the -2 at the front doesn't impact this vertex - this -2 just changes the 'scale' of the parabola (i.e makes it more narrow, and also turns it upside down as it's a negative number).
