Answer:

257 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You know based upon soh that sin=opp/hyp

So drawing a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 400 ft and an angle of 40° with the ground, you can see that sin40=x/400

Multiply both sides to find your x value or height which is 257.

Parallelogram have 4 sides.

Use the distributive property. 2 multiply the last and negative 4 in the parentheses.
2l + 2(l - 4) = 72 m

Combine Like terms
2l + 2l - 8 = 72 m
4l - 8 = 72 m
Get l all by itself by adding 8 to both sides
4l - 8 = 72 m
+8. +8

Divide both sides by 4
4l = 80
4. 4

l= 20

The width of the parallelogram is four meters less than its length.

4 sides
2 length = 20
2 width = 16

I got 16 by subtracting 4 from 20
