With this, we should remember SOHCAHTOA (Sine: Opposite over Hypotenuse, Cosine: Adjacent over Hypotenuse, and Tangent: Opposite over Adjacent).

Using the image attached, we know that we should use Sine, because we know the hypotenuse (100 feet) and we want to know the height, or the Opposite (h).

So, we use: sin(48)=h/100 and we multiply both sides by 100 to get:

100sin(48)=h

Now, we just plug the numbers into a calculator. (Make sure your calculator is set to Degrees, or "Deg").

What we get is about 74.3144825... but we can round that to 74.3 feet.

Answer: 74.3 feet.

The output is eleven more then the input
enot [183]
The input is known as x and the output is known as y in math.
So you’re stating that we’re making the equation equal the output, y, and we’re adding based off of the word “more”. Now that we know we’re adding, we have to find what we are adding together. We are adding x and 11 is that it equals y. Note that x and y could be many different variables and values.
Y= x+11

. Curt is installing a picket fence around his garden which is 45.45 ft by 14.63 ft. When he gets to the hardware store he finds
Dmitriy789 [7]
The fence must have two sides of length 45.45 ft and two sides of length 14.63

To cover each of 45.45 ft long side, he will need 45.45 /  2 = 22.7 slats which approximates to 23. So, they are 2 * 23 = 46 slats.

To cover each of 14.63 ft sides, he will need 14.63 / 2 = 7.3 which approximates to 8 (to not leave any spaces between each slat). So, they are 2 * 8 = 16 slats.

That makes 46 + 16 = 62 slats.

Answer: around 62 slats.
