PLEASE HELP!!

Mathematics
1 answer:

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The bird is approximately 9 ft high up in the tree

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The required diagram is shown in the attached image

Note that the tree, the cat and the ground form a right-angled triangle

<u>Therefore, we can apply special trigonometric functions</u>

<u>These functions are as follows:</u>

sin(\alpha)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} \\ \\ cos(\alpha)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} \\ \\tan(\alpha)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

<u>Now, taking a look at our diagram, we can note the following:</u>

α = 25°

The opposite side is the required height (x)

The adjacent side is the distance between the cat and the tree = 20 ft

Therefore, we can use the <u>tan function</u>

<u>This is done as follows:</u>

tan(\alpha)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}\\ \\ tan(25)=\frac{x}{20}\\ \\x=20tan(25) = 9. 32 ft which is 9 ft approximated to the nearest ft

Hope this helps :)

dimulka [17.4K]
2/3 think of this as a pie right divided into 3 area but only 2 people eat from it 1 left but how would i complete it if its not done well i need to  complete the "pie"
by adding an exponent into the mesure and cacultating a mass of a=mx+b
now you divide and get 0.75
so you will fill in .25 more to get the full measurement by eating 1 more pie:
