An irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as a fraction for any integers and. . Irrational numbers have decimal expansions that neither terminate nor become periodic. Every transcendental number is irrational.
When drawing triangle PQR the perpendicular bisector cuts the triangle in half, which results in two sides that are congruent. This makes QT and RT congruent.
The horizontal distance is given by the formula: tan θ=opposite/adjacent where: θ=21 opposite=2000 ft adjacent=a thus calculating for a we get: tan 21=2000/a thus a=2000/tan 21 a=5210.18 ft
