Answer:
Answer: x = 71 degrees. Yes, the ladder meets safety standards
Discussion:
The problem describes a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, the side against the ground is 4, and the angle between those two sides is "x". For this triangle,
cosx = (side adjacent to angle) / hypotenuse
= 4 / 12
= 1/3
To find "x" take the inverse cosine of each side to find that :
x is approximately 70.52 degrees. That's 71 degrees rounded to the nearest degree.

What do you need it rounded to?
Answer: c
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is your function:

You're looking for f(-1). To get your answer, you have to replace all the x's with -1.
Here is your new equation:

Multiply 2 by -1

<em>Remember:</em>
MULTIPLYING
- Positive(+) times negative(-) is equal to negative
- Positive(+) times positive(+) is equal to positive
- Negative(-) times negative(-) is equal to positive
- Negative(-) times positive(+) is equal to negative
DIVIDING
- Positive(+) divided by positive(+) is equal to positive
- Positive(+) divided by negative(-) is equal to negative
- Negative(-) divided by positive(+) is equal to negative
- Negative(-) divided by negative(-0 is equal to positive
Since you're multiplying a negative number by a positive number, the answer will be negative.
Here is your new equation:

Add -2 and 2:

That means your answer is 0
