Answer:

-3

Three feet below the initial elevation

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial elevation is 224 feet.

We take descent to be negative and ascent to be positive.

The numerical addition expression is

224+-131+67+-163

We simplify this to obtain:

224-131+67-163=-3

The negative sign means Sally is 3 feet below his initial elevation

Which sum or difference identity would you use to verify that cos (180° - q) = -cos q?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given : \cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q

We have to write which identity we will use to prove the given statement.

Consider \cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q

Take left hand side of given expression \cos (180^{\circ}-q)

We know

\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b

Comparing , we get, a= 180° and b = q

Substitute , we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=\cos 180^{\circ}  \cos (q)+\sin q \sin 180^{\circ}

Also, we know \sin 180^{\circ}=0 and \cos 180^{\circ}=-1

Substitute, we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-1\cdot \cos (q)+\sin q \cdot 0

Simplify , we get,

\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos (q)

Hence, use difference identity to  prove the given result.
