Answer:
343.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The wire is anchored 190 -13 = 177 ft from the ground. That distance is opposite the given angle (31°). The measure you want is the hypotenuse of the triangle with that side and angle measures.
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the relation between the opposite side, hypotenuse, and angle is ...
Sin(angle) = Opposite/Hypotenuse
Filling in the given information, you have ...
sin(31°) = (177 ft)/hypotenuse
Solving for hypotenuse gives
hypotenuse = (177 ft)/sin(31°) ≈ 343.7 ft
The length of the guy wire should be 343.7 ft.
Answer:
31869.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
let's look at the full numbers under the square roots when bringing the external factors back in :
sqrt(9×9×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) + sqrt(8) - sqrt(28)
and let's present these numbers as the product of their basic prime factors
sqrt(3×3×3×3×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) + sqrt(2×2×2) - sqrt(2×2×7)
now we see that we have 2 pairs of square roots : 1 pair ends with a factor of 2, and one pair with a factor of 7.
let's combine these
sqrt (3×3×3×3×2) + sqrt(2×2×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) - sqrt (2×2×7)
and now we move the factors of 2 and 7 back out in front (of course, we need to apply the square root on these factors) :
9×sqrt(2) + 2×sqrt(2) - 3×sqrt(7) - 2×sqrt(7) =
= (9+2)×sqrt(2) - (3+2)×sqrt(7) = 11×sqrt(2) - 5×sqrt(7)
and that is the first answer option.
