SOMEONE HELP ASAPPPPPPP!!! PLEASE
1 answer:
(1) See below for a diagram. Basically, the distance on the ground from the person to the building (34 ft) is adjacent to the angle of elevation (74 degrees) and the height of the building (labeled h in the diagram) is the side opposite the angle. Since we are dealing with opposite and adjacent we use the tangent of the angle and tan = opp/adj

feet.
Please be sure your calculator is set to degrees (not radians) when you do this problem.
(2) Here since P & Q are complimentary it means that their sum is 90 degrees. Since this is a right triangle that means that the remaining angle (R) must be the right angle. See below for a diagram.
sin = opp/hyp. As the sin Q = 9/41 this means that 9 is the length of the side opposite Q (the side PR) and 41 is the length of the hypotenuse. This makes the remaining side (QR) 40 in length.
cos = adj/hyp. If we focus on angle P the side adjacent (next to) is 9 and the hypotenuse is 41. Thus the cos of P = 9/41.
You could have also realized that if P & Q are complimentary the sin P = cos Q and the cos P = sin Q. We were not asked about tangent but it is also the case that tan P = cot Q and cot P = tan Q.

Both the sample can be used to make inferences about the population.
The correct option is D.
Given
Jason and Yolanda both drew a simple random sample from a non-normally distributed population of 25,000.
Jason’s sample consisted of 0.24% of the population, while Yolanda’s sample consisted of 0.32% of the population.
<h3>Percentage;</h3>A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.
According to the question
Total number of population = 25000
Percent of a sample of Jason = 0.24%
Percent of the sample of Yolanda's = 0.32%
So, the number of the population according to Jason's sample is given by;
The number of the population according to Yolanda's sample is given by;
Hence, Both the sample can be used to make inferences about the population
