What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a1 = 20 and r = 1/4?

1 answer:

4 0

Sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
Sn = 20(1 - (1/4)^5)/(1 - 1/4) = 20(1 - 1/1024)/(3/4) = 20(1023/1024)/(3/4) = 26 41/64

The angle of depression from the top of a flag pole to a point on the ground is 30°. If the point on the ground is 75 feet from

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Height of flag pole to the nearest foot is 43 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram we have flag pole AB and C is the point on the ground.

It is given that angle of depression is 30°

and the distance of the point C from the base B is 75 feet

so we have

BC= 75 feet

∠C = 30°

AB= h feet

now in right ΔABC

$tan C = \frac{opposite \ side }{base} \\tan C=\frac{AB}{BC}$

now we plug AB= h , ∠C= 30° and BC =75

$tan 30= \frac{h}{75}$

$75 tan30 = h$ ( multiply both sides by 75)

$h= 75 tan 30 =75 (0.5773)\\ h= 43.3 feet\\$

Height of flag pole to the nearest foot is

h= 43 feet
