Answer:

22.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of tree

tan(62) = x/12

x = 12tan(62)

Does anyone understand what to do here?
My name is Ann [436]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several possible ways to describe the "type" of a polynomial. Here, since there is a separate column for "degree", we assume that "type" refers to the number of terms.

Polynomials with 1, 2, or 3 terms are called, respectively, <em>monomial</em>, <em>binomial</em>, and <em>trinomial</em>. The first two expressions listed have 1 term only, so are monomials. The last expression has 3 terms, so is a trinomial.

__

The coefficients are the constant multiplier of the term. Some say a "constant", such as the -8 in the last expression, is not considered a coefficient, because there are no variables that it is multiplying. Here, we have listed it among the coefficients in that expression.

__

The degree of a term is the sum of the degrees of the variables in the term. For terms with only one variable, it is the exponent of that variable. For terms such as the second expression, the degree is the sum of the exponents: 3+4 = 7. The degree of a polynomial with more than one term is the highest degree of all the terms.

Which sentence contains a pronoun with an unclear, a missing, or a confusing antecedent?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

B. They say that doing homework leads to his success in school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the answers, C and D already make sense, so they're not the answers. The answer A does not have an unclear antecedent because "my mom and me" would not be written as "my mom and I". B is the only answer left. If you look at the sentence, it begins with "they", and it ends up saying "his success in school". This sentence includes a confusing antecedent because the sentence does not define the person who it is describing.

Sorry if this explanation was confusing. I hope this helps! Have a great day!! C:

I don’t understand how to proof Cpctc or answer the questions
n200080 [17]
I think that first you need to understand what CPCTC is used for.

Let's start with the definition of congruent triangles.

Definition of congruent triangles
Two triangles are congruent if each side of one triangle is congruent to a corresponding side of the other triangle and each angle of one triangle is congruent to a corresponding angle of the other triangle.

A definition works two ways.
1) If you are told the sides and angles of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides and angle of a second triangle, then you can conclude the triangles are congruent.
2) If you are told the triangles are congruent, then you can conclude 6 statements of congruence, 3 for sides and 3 for angles.

Now let's see what CPCTC is and how it works.
CPCTC stands for "corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent."
The way it works is this. You can prove triangles congruent by knowing fewer that 6 statements of congruence. You can use ASA, SAS, AAS, SSS, etc. Once you prove two triangles congruent, then by the definition of congruent triangles, there are 6 congruent statements. That is where CPCTC comes in. Once you prove the triangles congruent, then you can conclude two corresponding sides or two corresponding angles are congruent by CPCTC. These two corresponding parts were not involved in proving the triangles congruent.

Problem 1.

Statements                                        Reasons
1. Seg. AD perp. seg. BC               1. Given
2. <ADB & <ADC are right angles     2. Def. of perp. lines
3. <ADB is congr. <ADC                 3. All right angles are congruent
4. Seg. BD is congr. seg CD           4. Given
5. Seg. AD is congr. seg. AD        5. Congruence of segments is reflexive
6. Tr. ABD is congr. tr. ACD           6. SAS
7. Seg. AB is congr. seg. AC        7. CPCTC
