We are given : Distance of the swing = 100 feet.

Distance of slide = 80 feet.

Angle between swing and slide = 30 degrees.

We need to find the distance between the swing and the slide.

Distance of swing, distance of slide and distance between the swing and the slide form a triangle.

We can apply cosine law to find the distance between the swing and the slide.

c^2 = a^2 +b^2  - 2ab cos C

c^2 = 100^2 +80^2 - 2(100)(80) cos 30°

c^2 = 10000 + 6400 -2* 8000 (\frac{\sqrt{3}} 2)}

c^2 = 16400 - 8000\sqrt{3}

c^2 = 16400 - 13856

c^2 = 2544

c =\sqrt{2544}

c= 50.44

c = 50 feet approximately.

<h3>Therefore, the approximate distance between the swing and the slide is 50 feet.</h3>

Find the equation of the line using the given information.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

x 1 = -3  

x2 = -3

y1 = 0

y2 = 5

The slope of that equation is infinite and the equation is a perfectly vertical line at x = -3.

So, the equation is x = -3.

Answer:

\displaystyle y = -\frac{x}{5} - 2\frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle x + 5y = -11 → 5y = -x - 11 → \frac{5y}{5} = \frac{-x - 11}{5} \\ \\ y = -\frac{1}{5}x - 2\frac{1}{5}
