Answer:

The distance from the pole is 11.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the distance from the pole

we know that

The tangent of angle of 28 degrees is equal to divide the opposite side to angle of 28 degrees ( the height of the pole) by the adjacent side to angle of 28 degrees ( the horizontal distance from the pole)

so

tan(28°)=6.3/x

Solve for x

x=6.3/tan(28°)=11.8 ft

What is the perimeter
musickatia [10]
Shorter leg = 9 units
longer leg = 12 units
hypotenuse = √(9² + 12²) = √(81+144) = √225 = 15 units

perimeter = 9 + 12 + 15 = 36 units

I desperately need this question answered. See attached image thanks so much
Dahasolnce [82]

For this case we must follow the steps below:

step 1:

We place each of the given points on a coordinate axis

Step 2:

We join the AC points (represented by the orange line)

We join the BD points (represented by the blue line)

It is observed that the resulting figure after placing the 4 points on a coordinate axis, turns out to be a rhombus.

In addition, the blue and orange lines turn out to be perpendicular, that is, they have an angle of 90 degrees between them. This can be verified by finding the slopes of each of the two straight lines (blue and orange), which must be opposite reciprocal, that is, they comply: m1 * m2 = -1

In this case, the slope of the orange line is m1 = 1 and that of the blue line is m2 = -1

Then m1 * m2 = 1 * -1 = -1, it is verified that they are perpendicular.

Thus, the conclusion is that ABCD is a rhombus and AC is perpendicular to BD.

Michelle needs to buy some wood to build a rectangular box that is 12 inches long 8 inches wide and 10 inches high and net worth
Anettt [7]
Since it’s asking for square inches on a rectangular prism, this is solving for surface area. So we use the following formula:
2(h*w)+2(h*l)+2(w*l)=A

2(10*8)+2(10*12)+2(8*12)
2(80)+2(120)+2(96)
160+240+192
592

592 sq. in.

18 A woman is 3 times as old as her son.
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The son in 12 years old and the woman is 36 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the woman’s current age be w years and son’s age be s years. According to the question, the woman is 3 times as old as her son then, w=3s Also, it is given that 8 years ago the product of their ages were 112 Therefore, (w-8)(s-8)=112 (3s-8)(s-8)=112 Solving for s, we get 3 s^{2}-32s-48=0 By using quadratic equation s=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}=\frac{-(-32)+\sqrt{32^{2}-4(3)(-48)}}{2(3)}=\frac{-(-32)+\sqrt{1570}}{6}=\frac{71,62}{6}=11.9 \cong 12 s=12 We know that w=3s w=3 \times 12 = 36. Hence, the woman’s age is 36 years and the son’s age is 12 years.

3x+y=5<br> y=2x<br> Substitution method
Viefleur [7K]
Substitute 2x as y:

3x + y = 5
3x + 2x = 5
5x = 5
x = 1

Now, substitue 1 as x into one of the two equations:

y = 2x
y = 2(1)
y = 2

Hope this helps!
