We have a right triangle and an indicated angle of 59°. Opposite that angle is the height of the building, which we seek. Adjacent to that angle is the distance to the building, which we know is 63 feet.
We have a problem with opposite and adjacent so we use the tangent function.
tan 59° = h / 63
h = 63 tan 59° ≈ 104.8496074
Answer: 105 feet
1/8 of all=mystery
mystery=3
'of' means multiply
therefor
1/8 times all=3
multiply both sides by 8/1 to clear fracion
all=24
Answer:
A. y=2x-9
B. 
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Parallel lines have the same slope. That means the line y=2x+3 has the same slope as any line parallel to it. So the slope is 2.
Using m=2, substitute it and (4,-1) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.
B. Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals of each other. The slope of the line y=2x+3 is 2. The slope perpendicular to it is -1/2.
Using m=-1/2, substitute it and (4,-1) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.
No. Terrell is not correct. Terrell is incorrect. The method he offers is
inappropriate, inapplicable, and lacks veracity, and as a mathematician,
Terrell himself is devoid of integrity. If his method is implemented, it
cannot accurately compute the capacity of Dominic's water jug in fluid
ounces. It will produce a number that is inaccurate, fallacious, mistaken,
erroneous, and incorrect. Moreover, the solution will be wrong.
If the units are carried through with the calculation ... as always they must ...
then it will immediately become clear that Terrell's method has produced a
solution with units of "square quarts per ounce", whereupon any witnesses
should justifiably become nauseous. Terrell's method should be disdained,
rejected, discarded and ignored.
==> 1.25 should not be "divided" by 32.
==> Instead, 1.25 should be<span> multiplied </span>by 32.
The modified method will produce a result with units of "fluid ounces" ...
the first indication to the assembled multitude that whatever the number
is, there is a reasonable chance that it could be a correct one.
