Barbara is building a wooden cabin. The cabin is 42 meters wide. She obtained a bunch of 27 meters long wooden beams for the roo

f of the cabin. Naturally, she wants to place the roof beams in such an angle that each pair of opposite beams would meet exactly in the middle. What is the angle of elevation, in degrees, of the roof beams?

Answer: The angle of elevation should be 38.9 degrees.

To find this answer, it is always best to draw a picture of the building. The point of the roof, will be directly over the middle of the cabin. Therefore, we could draw an altitude down from the top to the cabin and create a right triangle.

This would form a triangle with an adjacent side and hypotenuse with our needed angle.

We could write and solve the following cosine equation:

cos(x) = 21/27
x = 38.9

There are 207 students in 9 classes at this rate how many are in 6 classes
soldi70 [24.7K]
There would be 138 students in 6 classes because first you'd divide 207 from 9 and get 23 then you'd multiply 23 to 6 and get 138.

Measure the diagonal of a square whose area is exactly one square foot. Is the diagonal length closer to 1.5 or 1.4 feet? Explai
kondor19780726 [428]

It is closer to 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 45 45 90 triangle

To find the hypotenuse of this triangle it is any side length times the square root of two.

Formula: Square Root = sqrt

Hypotenuse = SideLength*sqrt(2) ; 1*sqrt(2) = 1.412...

Rounded to the nearest tenths it is closer to 1.4 than 1.5
