sin x = cos 54 = sin (90-54) = sin 46
Hence x = 46 deg
Same technique. Sin 21 = cos (5x+9) = sin (90-5x-9)
81-5x = 21
Or 5x = 60
Or x = 12 deg
hope it helps
Y=mx+b
M equals the slope
B equals the y-intercept So
Y=1x+0
The average is approximately 3 inches an hour
If u take 12 divided by .20 you would get 60 because if u think of it as a dinner bill say it is $60.00 and I want to give a 10% tip it would be $6 but if u give a 20% tip u would give $12
This can be solved using trigonometric functions. The distance x serves as one leg of a triangle, and makes an angle q with the hypotenuse. The distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground make up the other leg of the triangle. So solving this:
tan q = y / x
Where: y = distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground
Therefore, y = x tan q
Among the choices, the correct answer is C.
