<span>D) 322.75 feet
use the trigonometric ratio Tangent to solve for this problem. 
Tan =  Tan(angle) = opposite side / adjacent side
we dont know height of pole so use x for opposite side.
plug in values
tan(67) = x/137
multiply both sides by 137
137*tan(67) = x 
plug into calculator to get 322.75</span>

This question is really confusing me, it talks about unknown angle problems with Algebra.
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given and marked angles add up to 90.

A = x

B = 3x + 10

A + B = 90          Substitute for A and B. A and B are just letters I gave things.

x + 3x + 10 = 90        Combine the left

4x + 10 = 90              Subtract 10 from both sides.

4x +10-10 = 90-10     Combine

4x = 80                      Divide by 4

4x/4=80/4

x = 20

A sequence is constructed according to the following rule: its first term is 7, and each next term is one more than the sum of t
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the described rule, we have

a_1=7\\ \\a_1^2=7^2=49\Rightarrow a_2=4+9+1=14\\ \\a_2^2=14^2=196\Rightarrow a_3=1+9+6+1=17\\ \\a_3^2=17^2=289\Rightarrow a_4=2+8+9+1=20\\ \\a_4^2=20^2=400\Rightarrow a_5=4+0+0+1=5\\ \\a_5^2=5^2=25\Rightarrow a_6=2+5+1=8\\ \\a_6^2=8^2=64\Rightarrow a_7=6+4+1=11\\ \\a_7^2=11^2=121\Rightarrow a_8=1+2+1+1=5\\ \\\text{and so on...}

We can see the pattern

a_5=a_8=a_{11}=a_{14}=...=5\\ \\a_6=a_9=a_{12}=a_{15}=...=8\\ \\a_7=a_{10}=a_{13}=a_{16}=...=11

In other words, for all k\ge 2

a_{3k-1}=5\\ \\a_{3k}=8\\ \\a_{3k+1}=11

Now,

a_{2018}=a_{3\cdot 673-1}=5

Hi!! Please help me with this question. I got an answer of 63.25 but it was incorrect and need to redo it. Please also explain h
matrenka [14]

Answer:

x ≈ 63.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan49° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{EF}{DE} = \frac{x}{55} ( multiply both sides by 55 )

55 × tan49° = x , then

x ≈ 63.27 ( to the nearest hundredth )
