(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

Specifically, tan74= \frac{h}{34}
h=(34)(tan74)<span class="_wysihtml5-temp-placeholder"></span>
h=118.6 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.

-\dfrac{1}{6} \times \left(-\dfrac{9}{7}\right)− 6 1 ​ ×(− 7 9 ​ )minus, start fraction, 1, divided by, 6, end fraction, times,
sergey [27]

Answer:

  \dfrac{3}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

The even number of minus signs means the product will be positive. A factor of 3 can be removed to simplify the product. As usual, the numerator of the product is the product of numerators, and the denominator of the product is the product of denominators.

  -\dfrac{1}{6} \times \left(-\dfrac{9}{7}\right)=\dfrac{1\cdot 9}{6\cdot 7}=\dfrac{3\cdot 3}{3\cdot 14}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{14}}

Please help! I’m not sure what order they go in! (7th grade math)
avanturin [10]

Answer:

30: -5, -2, | 2 |, | 3 |, 8

    31: -7, -6, | 5 |, | -6 |, 8

32: -12, | 10 |, | -12 |, | -15 |, | -26 |

    33: -17, | -11 |, | 20 |, 21, | -34 |

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value turns a negative function into a positive one.

    Example: | -24 | would become 24

If it is positive, it stays the same.

    Example: | 14 | would simple be 14
