Answer: 16.91°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can draw a right triangle as you can see in the figure attached.

2. Then you can calculate the angle of elevation (α) as following:

\alpha=arcsin(\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse})

Where:

opposite=32\\hypotenuse=110

3. Now you must substitute these values. Then, the angle of elevation is:

 \alpha=arcsin(\frac{32}{110})

\alpha=16.91\°

What is the sum of the geometric series in which a1 = −5, r = 3, and an = −405?
marysya [2.9K]
An = a1 * r^(n-1)

-405 = -5*3^(n-1)

3^(n-1) = 81

3^4 = 81  so n-1 = 3  and n =  4

Sn  = S4  =  -5 (1 - 3^4)   / ( 1 - 3)   =  400 / -2 = -200 Answer

What is the surface area of a triangular pyramid if each face has an area of 30 mm2?
coldgirl [10]
The answer must be 120\quad m{ m }^{ 2 } since the triangular pyramid has 4 faces and each has an area of 30 m{ m }^{ 2 } we should multiply that by 4 , so :

4\cdot 30\quad m{ m }^{ 2 }=\quad 120\quad m{ m }^{ 2 }
