Answer: The distance between m and I can 7 cm or 1 cm.

Explanation:

According to the question, distance between point M and line m= 3 cm

Distance between point M and line I=4 cm

Since, according to the given data there can be two cases possible.

M can be a point between these two lines

In this case the distance between m and I = distance between point M and line m + distance between point M and line I=  3+4=7 cm

M can be the point above the line m(where line m is above the line I)

In this case the distance between m and I= Distance between point M and line I- distance between point M and line I= 4-3=1 cm

Note: we can not take the case in which M is the point above the line I  where line I is above the line m because in that case distance between M and m must be greater than 3 which can not be possible.

Answer:

The angle complies with the state regulations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation is the angle \theta in the figure, and from trigonometry we find that

sin(\theta) = \dfrac{1.5ft}{25ft}

taking the inverse sine of both sides we get

\theta = sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.5ft}{25ft})

which gives

\theta = 3.44^o

which is less than 5°, and therefore is well within the state regulations.

Find a common multiple in between the denominators.
10 and 3 and 5 -> the least common multiple is 30.

Change all the denominators to 30 by multiplying the top and bottom by the same number.

9/10=27/30
1/3=10/30
1/5=6/30

Subtract!
27/39-10/30-6/30=11/30

The answer is 11/30

Hope this helps!
