Answer:
30.1 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a school flag poll casts a 16 foot shadow on the lawn. A teacher stood at the shadows edge and measure the angle of elevation to the top of the poll at 62°. We are asked to find the height of the tall.
First of all, we will draw a diagram to represent our give scenario as shown in the attachment.
We can see that side length with 16 feet is adjacent side and height of the pole (h) is opposite side to angle of elevation.
We know that tangent relates opposite side of a right triangle to its adjacent side.
Therefore, the poll is approximately 30.1 feet tall.
The right triangle is also Isosceles. It has two equal angles of 45°.
(hypotenuse)² = 2S²
4 = 2S² => S = √2
Therefore B is the correct answer.
Answer: Y=(
) x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
absolute max is 120 and absolute min is -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Find critical numbers
f'(x) = 3x^2 - 12x + 9 = 0
= 3(x^2 - 4x + 3) = 0
3(x-3)(x-1) = 0
(x-3) = 0 or (x-1)=0
x = 1,3
Test them!
x<1 Sign of f' on this interval is positive
1<x<3 Sign of f' on this interval is negative
x>3 Sign of f' on this interval is positive
f(x) changes from positive to negative at x = 1 which means there is a relative maximum here.
f(x) changes from negative to positive at x = 3 which means there is a relative minimum here.
Test the endpoints to find the absolute max and min.
f(-1) = -8
f(1) = 12
f(3) = 8
f(7) = 120
The absolute maximum value of f is 120 and the absolute minimum value of f is -8.
