Answer:

79.9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you draw out the problem, you can easily visualize it.

We are given the opposite side length and the angle, and we need to find the adjacent. So, we will use tangent (soh cah toa - tangent: opposite/adjacent).

tan(53) = (100 + 6) / x

tan(53) = 106 / x

x = 106 / (tan(53))

x = 106 / 1.327044822

x = 79.87672931

Round your answer to the nearest tenth!

So, the park is approximately 79.9 feet away!

Hope this helps!

Both circle Q and circle R have a central angle measuring 140°. The area of circle Q's sector is 25π m2, and the area of circle

taurus [48]

Solution:

we are given that

Both circle Q and circle R have a central angle measuring 140°. The area of circle Q's sector is 25π m^2, and the area of circle R's sector is 49π m^2.

we have been asked to find the ratio of the radius of circle Q to the radius of circle R?

As we know that

Area of the sector is directly proportional to square of radius. So we can write

$Area \ \ \alpha \ \ r^2\\ \\ \Rightarrow A=kr^2\\ \\ \text{where k is some proportionality constant }\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{A_1}{A_2}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}=\frac{25 \pi}{49 \pi}\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\frac{25 \pi}{49 \pi}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{5}{7} \\$
