Answer:

21 feet (20.977)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw a picture, it makes it much easier. Draw a right triangle with the vertical labeled 25 and the horizontal labeled X, then label the angle adjacent to the horizontal and hypotenuse 40°

2. Use tangent because X is opposite of 40 and 25 is adjacent to angle 40. the equation would be Tan40/1 = X/25

3. You then cross multiply to get 25Tan(40) = X

4 You then plug it into a calculator and get the full answer of 20.97749078, but I always round up to either 20.98 or 21 feet, whatever your teacher allows

A cylinder has a base diameter of 16 feet and a height of 19 feet. What is its volume in cubic feet, to the nearest tenths place
Tresset [83]

Answer: Volume = 3818.2 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a cylinder is expressed as

Volume = πr²h

Where

r represents the radius of the cylinder.

h represents the height of the cylinder.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

Diameter = 16 feet

Radius = diameter/2 = 16/2

Radius = 8 feet

Height = 19 feet

Therefore,

Volume = 3.14 × 8² × 19

Volume = 3.14 × 64 × 19

Volume = 3818.2 cubic feet rounded to the nearest tenth
