<h2>Answer:</h2>

\boxed{\frac{25}{2}(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})+65}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<em>The height of the rider from the ground after the Ferris wheel</em> equals <em>the starting point is 15 feet off the ground </em><em>plus </em><em>the radius of the Ferris wheel </em><em>plus </em><em>the opposite side of the triangle ΔABC </em>(See figure below).<em> </em>Hence our goal is to find this side. We have the angle 11\pi /2=165^{\circ}, therefore the angle ∠BAC = 165° - 90° = 75°. So this side can be found using trigonometry:

\overline{BC}=\overline{AB}sin(75^{\circ})=50sin(75^{\circ})=\frac{25}{2}(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})

Finally, the height is:

H=\frac{25}{2}(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})+15+50 \\ \\ \boxed{H=\frac{25}{2}(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})+65}

AB is a diameter of a circle, center O. C is a point on the circumference of the circle, such that
Solnce55 [7]

Given:

AB is the diameter of a circle.

m∠CAB = 26°

To find:

The measure of m∠CBA.

Solution:

Angle formed in the diameter of a circle is always 90°.

⇒ m∠ACB = 90°

In triangle ACB,

Sum of the angles in the triangle = 180°

m∠CAB + m∠ACB + m∠CBA = 180°

26° + 90° + m∠CBA = 180°

116° + m∠CBA = 180°

Subtract 116° from both sides.

116° + m∠CBA - 116° = 180° - 116°

m∠CBA = 64°

The measure of m∠CBA is 64°.

A statement can help you organize the numbers to answer a question about percents
Semenov [28]

Answer:

<u> $50</u> is <u>27.02%</u> of <u>$185</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Money spent on clothing = $50

Money spent on Groceries = $100

Money spent on Gas = $35

Total money spent = $185

Our question is to find the percentage of total money that is spent on clothing.

Percentage money on clothing = \frac{Money spent on clothing}{Total money} × 100

                                                   = \frac{50}{185} × 100

                                                   = 27.02% (approx)

Hence,<u> $50</u> is <u>27.02%</u> of <u>$185</u>.
