The rise or an increase in altitude is represented by positive sign and a decend or decrease in altitude is represented by negative sign.
First the helicopter descended 1200 feet. So the change in altitude will be -1200 feet.
Then the helicopter rose by 800 feet. So the change in altitude will be 800 feet.
Finally the helicopter descended by 450 feet. So the change in altitude will be -450 feet.
The net change in altitude will be the sum of all the above 3 changes.
Change in altitude = -1200 + 800 - 450 = -850 feet
The negative sign indicates a descend i.e. loss in altitude. So the net change in altitude was a loss of 850 feet.
.35 as a fraction is 35/100=7/20 Hope this helps :D
Answer:The answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
first find te height:
1.5/2=0.75 (this will be your "b" of the pythagorean theorem for finding the height)
now do the pythagorean theorem:
a^2+0.75^2=3^2
(height)= 2.905
A= a^2+2a√((a^2/4)+h^2)
a (base edge)= 1.5
h (height)= 2.905
Calculate and you get B as your answer.
Hope this elpsand you get this right!
Answer: 252
