Answer:

<h2>87 feet</h2>

Solution,

$tan \: theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

$tan \: 60 = \frac{h}{50} \\ 5 \: tan \: 60 = h \\ h = 50 \: tan \: 60 \\ h = 87 \: feet$

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..

Can someone explain why A is the right answer to this question? I'm unsure of how to work out this problem.

joja [24]

So firstly, we have to find the radius of the circular garden before finding the circumference (the amount of fencing needed to surround the garden). To find the radius, use the area formula ( $A=\pi r^2$ ), plug in the area of the garden (36 ft^2) and solve for r as such:

$36=\pi r^2\\ \frac{36}{\pi}=r^2\\ \frac{\sqrt{36}}{\sqrt{\pi}}=r\\ \frac{6}{\sqrt{\pi}}=r$

So that we know the radius, plug that into the circumference equation ( $C=2\pi r$ ) to solve:

$C=2\pi*\frac{6}{\sqrt{\pi}}\\ C=\frac{12\pi}{\sqrt{\pi}}\\ C=12\sqrt{\pi}$

Your answer is A. 12√π.

The number of students who attended Albany Medical College last year was 1000. This year, attendance has increased to 1350 stude

NeTakaya

First you have to subtract 1350-1000 to get 350. Then you have to make 350/1000 into a percent. First you have to turn it into a decimal. In the fraction 350/1000 can be reduced to 35/100. In decimal form it would be 0.35. In pecentage form it would be 35%. The percentage difference of the student population would be 35%.
