Emily (who is 5.5 feet tall) wants to measure the height of a tree in the
serg [7]

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

Here apply the formula for tangent of an angle to find height of the tree

Distance from house to tree is 100 ft = adjacent side

Tan ∅ = opposite side/adjacent side

Tan 46.4° = height of tree/100

h= 100 tan 46.4° = 105.01 ft

Given height of Emily is 5.5 ft, add this to 105.01 to find total height of the tree

=105.01 + 5.5 =110.51 ft

The tree is tall (110.51 ft) enough to hit her home which is 100 ft away from the tree.

In a plant, red flower color is incompletely dominant over yellow. What will the distribution of flowers in the F2 hybrids be if
Simora [160]
A Punnett square would help here. 

Let's say (R) is dominant red and (r) is recessive red, aka yellow. 

You start with F1 hybrid flowers that are all (Rr) - these are all <em>orange</em>. So when they reproduce, both parents are (Rr). When you create a Punnett square, you'll see that the results for the F2 generation are (RR), (rr), and (Rr) twice. 

(RR) is red, (rr) is yellow, and (Rr) is orange, just like the F1 generation.
