Answer:

1379.31meters  is the​ line-of-sight distance from the television camera to the base of the stadium​ .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A blimp provides aerial television views of a tennis game.

The television camera sights the stadium at a 17degrees angle of depression. The altitude of the blimp is 400m.

Now by using the trignometric identity .

sin\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}

As the figure is given below .

Perpendicular = AC = 400 m

Hypotenuse = AB

\theta = 17^{\circ}

Putting all the values in the identity .

sin17^{\circ} = \frac{400}{AB}

0.29\ (Approx)= \frac{400}{AB}

AB= \frac{400}{0.29}

AB = 1379.31 meters

Therefore the 1379.31 meters  is the​ line-of-sight distance from the television camera to the base of the stadium​ .

Answer:

\frac{2}{\sqrt{5} }

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, all we need to do is draw a triangle.  

From the arctan(2) we can deduce that tan(x)=\frac{2}{1}

From that, we can draw our triangle as we know that tan(x) is the opposite side over the adjacent side. Attached is that triangle. Through the Pythagorean Theorem, we can find that the hypotenuse of this right triangle is  \sqrt{5}

Now all we need to do is take the sin of this triangle, which is the opposite side over the hypotenuse

This gives us the value of \frac{2}{\sqrt{5} } which is our answer.

A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once.
kramer

Answer:

\Omega=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}

A=\{1,2,3,4\}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sample Space</u>

The sample space of a random experience is a set of all the possible outcomes of that experience. It's usually denoted by the letter \Omega.

We have a number cube with all faces labeled from 1 to 6. That cube is to be rolled once. The visible number shown in the cube is recorded as the outcome. The possible outcomes are listed as the sample space below:

\Omega=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}

Now we are required to give the outcomes for the event of rolling a number less than 5. Let's call A to such event. The set of possible outcomes for A has all the numbers from 1 to 4 as follows

A=\{1,2,3,4\}
