Answer:

The  angle of depression from Platform A to Platform B is 43.1^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure

The horizontal distance between the  platforms is 500 feet i.e. BC = 500

The length of the zip-line is 685 feet i.e. AB = 685

We are supposed to find the  angle of depression from Platform A to Platform B

Hypotenuse = 685

Base = 500

Cos \theta = \frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\Cos \theta = \frac{500}{685}\\\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{500}{685})\\\theta = 43.11^{\circ}

Hence  the  angle of depression from Platform A to Platform B is 43.1^{\circ}

Given:
surveyed 3/4 of the population
2/3 of the surveyed students are into school clubs or sports team.

Multiply the fractions:
1) Multiply numerators
2) Multiply denominators
3) Simplify fraction

3/4 * 2/3 = 3*2 / 4*3 = 6/12
6/12 can be simplified into 1/2

4a) 3 rows and 4 columns
4b) 2 of the rows gray
4c) 4 of the gray squares black
4d) 1/2 of the students participate in school clubs or sports team

Recall that all three angles in a triangle equals 180.
Knowing this, we just have to add up all the angles and figure out what the value 'x' is.

(x-22 + x-17 + 3x+19) = 180
Simplify:
5x - 20 = 180
Add 20 to both sides:
5x = 200
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 40

Now that we found the value for x, we need to solve for angle A.
Simply input the value of 'x' into angle A's equation:
40 - 22 = 18

Angle A = 18 degrees

Good luck! If you need me to explain anything, just ask :))

Here is my question please answer and give a good explanation: Which expression cannot be used to calculate the total amount pai
Ierofanga [76]
I'm pretty sure the answer is D. because I don't think anyone would want to take their total meal cost and then multiply it by their tip to make it even larger. You would just add the tip to the meal cost.
