We know that
tan ∅=opposite side angle ∅/adjacent side angle ∅
adjacent side angle ∅=opposite side angle/tan ∅

in this problem
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
angle ∅=80°
opposite side angle ∅=12 ft  (AB)
adjacent side angle ∅=? (AC)
adjacent side angle ∅=12/tan 80°------> 2.12 ft

the answer is
2.12 ft

What is the sum of the series?​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the values are relatively small substitute i = 1 to 5 into 3i and sum

(3 × 1) + (3 × 2) + (3 × 3) + (3 × 4) + (3 × 5)

= 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15

= 45

Katen [24]

Answer:

CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\sqrt{\frac{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}{200}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 200

x_1 = 34 -- City C

x_2 = 54 --- City K

Required

Determine the 90% confidence interval

This is calculated using:

CI = \bar x \± z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}

Calculating \bar x

\bar x = \bar x_1 - \bar x_2

\bar x = \frac{x_1}{n} - \frac{x_2}{n}

\bar x = \frac{34}{200} - \frac{54}{200}

\bar x = 0.17 - 0.27

For a 90% confidence level, the ​z-score is 1.65.  So:

z = 1.65

Calculating the standard deviation \sigma

\sigma = \sqrt{(\bar x_1)*(1 - \bar x_1) + (\bar x_2)*(1 - \bar x_2) }

So:

\sigma = \sqrt{(0.17)*(1 - 0.17) + (0.27)*(1 - 0.27) }

\sigma = \sqrt{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}

So:

CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\frac{\sqrt{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}}{\sqrt {200}}

CI = (0.17 - 0.27)\± 1.65\sqrt{\frac{(0.17)*(0.83) + (0.27)*(0.73)}{200}}
