The hurdle and runner form a right triangle (see attached picture) such that
sin(30°) = <em>h</em> / (5 ft)
and
cos(30°) = <em>x</em> / (5 ft)
where <em>h</em> is the height of the hurdle and <em>x</em> is the horizontal distance from where the runner jumps to the hurdle. So
<em>h</em> = (5 ft) sin(30°) = 5/2 ft = 2.5 ft
<em>x</em> = (5 ft) cos(30°) = (5√3)/2 ft ≈ 4.33 ft

Answer:
<em>Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years</em>
<em>The fathers present age is 35 years</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of daughter be x
Let the present age of father be y
5 years ago;
Daughter's age = x - 5
Fathers age = y - 5
If the present age of father is thrice as old as the age of daughter 5 years ago, then;
y - 5 = 3(x-5)
y - 5 = 3x-15
y = 3x - 10 .... 1
In 5 years time;
Daughters age = x + 5
Fathers age = y + 5
If the age of father will be twice the age of his daughter in 5 years time then;
y+5 = 2(x+5)
y+5 = 2x + 10
y = 2x + 5 .....2
Equate 1 and 2;
3x - 10 = 2x + 5
3x - 2x = 5 + 10
x = 15
Since y = 2x + 5
y = 2(15) + 5
y = 35
<em>Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years</em>
<em>The fathers present age is 35 years</em>
<em></em>

Answer:
3 months
Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know what's on your list of "useful financial formulas." One that can be used here is the formula for simple interest:
I = Prt . . . . . interest on principal P at annual rate r for t years
Solving for t gives ...
t = I/(Pr)
Filling in the given values, we can find t to be ...
t = 138/(4800×0.115) = 138/552 = 1/4
1/4 year is 3 months -- the duration of the loan.
