Answer:

63°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, the angle of elevation from the child to the top of the tree can be calculated using the tangent ratio.

Recall SOH-CAH-TOA from your Trigonometry class.

The tangent is opposite over adjacent.

\tan(A)  =  \frac{14}{7}

A =  \tan^{ - 1} ( 2)

A = 63.43 \degree

The angle of elevation is 63° to the nearest degree.

If (6y − 11)(6y 11) = ay^2 − b, what is the value of a? the value of a is ____________.
Triss [41]
(6y - 11)(6y + 11) = ay² - b    |use (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

(6y)² - 11² =ay² - b

36y² - 121 = ay² - b    |add b to both sides

ay² = 36y² - 121 + b        |divide both sides by y² ≠ 0

a = (36y² - 121 + b)/y²

\boxed{a=\dfrac{36y^2-121+b}{y^2}}

6 points are placed on the line a , 4 points are placed on the line b . How many triangles is it possible to form such that thei
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

Using side b as the base, 4 points makes 3 bases (the space in between).  With three bases, you can have 3 bases of 1 segment, 2 bases of 2 segments, and 1 base of 3 segments.  This equals 6 bases. Each of these can connect to a point on line a. 6x6=36

Using side a as the base, 6 points makes 5 bases.  With 5 bases, you can have 5 bases of 1 segment, 4 bases of 2 segments, 3 bases of 3 segments, 2 bases of 4 segments, and 1 base of 5 segments.  This equals 15 bases.  Each of these can connect to a point on line b.  15x4=60

36+60=96

How do u turn y +2=-3(x-1) Into standard form
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

<h2>3x + y = 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

y+2=-3(x-1)\\\\\text{It's a point-slope form of an equation of a line}.\\\\\text{The standard form is:}\ Ax+By=C.\\\\\text{Convert:}\\\\y+2=-3(x-1)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}:\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\y+2=(-3)(x)+(-3)(-1)\\\\y+2=-3x+3\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\y+2-2=-3x+3-2\\\\y=-3x+1\qquad\text{add}\ 3x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\y+3x=-3x+3x+1\\\\3x+y=1
