Answer:
- building: 222.61 ft
- flagpole: 32.15 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent function of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Here, the adjacent side is 500 ft, so we have ...
tan(24°) = (building height)/(500 ft)
building height = (500 ft)tan(24°) ≈ 222.61 ft
__
Similarly, the height to the top of the flagpole is ...
total height = (500 ft)tan(27°) ≈ 254.76 ft
The length of the flagpole is the difference of these heights:
flagpole length = 254.76 ft -222.61 ft = 32.15 ft
The height of the building is 222.61 ft; the length of the flagpole is 32.15 ft.
The answer is 40. Hope this helps
Hi there! :)
Answer:
<u><em>*THE ANSWER MUST HAVE A NEGATIVE SIGN!*</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you subtract by 8 from both sides of an equation.
5x+8-8=9x+12-8
Subtract.
12-8=4
5x=9x+4
Then, you subtract by 9x from both sides of an equation.
5x-9x=9x+4-9x
Simplify by equation.
-4x=-4
Divide by -4 from both sides of an equation.
-4x/-4=-4/-4
Divide by the numbers from left/right.
-4/-4=-1
