as viewed from Cliff 360 m above sea level the angle of depression of a ship is to 28° how far is the ship from the shore

1 answer:

6 0

The distance of the ship from the shore is given by:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=28°
adjacent=x
opposite=360 m

substituting the values in our equation we get:
tan 28=360/x
solving for x we get
x=360/tan 28
x=677.06 m

Sheila bought some rose plants and sunflower plants.There were 35 rose plants than sunflower plants.If the ratio of the rose pla

DENIUS [597]

So assuming that youmeans there were 35 MORE rose plants than sunflower seeds, then

Rose:Sunflower =8:3

rose=sunflower+35
therefor

8 units=rose
3 units=sunflowers

rose-35=sunflower
8unit-35=3unit
5unit-35=0
5unit=35
therefor
35=5unit
divide by 5
7=1unit

so 8 units of roses

7 times 8=56

3 units of sunflowers
3 times 7=21

rose=56
sunflower=21
