The angle of elevation will be given by:
cos θ=adjacent / hypotenuse
thus
adjacent=30 ft
hypotenuse=45 ft
thus
cos θ=30/45=2/3
hence
θ=arccos 2/3
θ=49.2°

Yuck, trig. I'm doing college trig at this very moment.

the top half (1+(2sinθ)cosθ)=1+sin(2θ)
because 2sinθcosθ=sin(2θ) is an identity

\frac{1+sin2θ}{(sinθ) (cosθ)}

Using polynomial division your answer becomes:
(csc θ)(sec θ)+2

How many solutions does the equation have?<br><br> 2x + 3 = 4x + 2
fenix001 [56]
Well, solve for x.

Combine like terms by performing the opposite operation of subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation

The 4x's will cross out on the right

4x - 4x = 0x = 0

On the left:

2x - 4x = -2x

Now the equation looks like:

-2x + 3 = 2

Continue to combine like terms by subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation

On the left:

3 - 3 = 0

On the right:

2 - 3 = -1

Equation:

-2x = -1

Isolate x by performing the opposite operation of dividing -2 on both sides of the equation

On the left:

-2x ÷ -2 = 1

On the right:

-1 ÷ -2 = 1/2

x= 1/2

So, there is only one solution: 1/2
