Answer:

94 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a proportion:

3.1 / 1.18 = x / 35.75

Cross multiply and solve:

1.18x = 3.1 × 35.75

1.18x = 110.825

x ≈ 94

Rounded to the nearest meter, the height of the tower is approximately 94 meters.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2\sqrt{5} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, $\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{x}{6})$ = y

sin(y) = $\frac{x}{6}$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\frac{d}{dx}(\frac{x}{6})$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\frac{1}{6}$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\text{cos}(y)\frac{dy}{dx}$ ---------(1)

$\frac{1}{6}=\text{cos}(y)\frac{dy}{dx}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{6\text{cos(y)}}$

cos(y) = $\sqrt{1-\text{sin}^{2}(y) }$

= $\sqrt{1-(\frac{x}{6})^2}$

= $\sqrt{1-(\frac{x^2}{36})}$

Therefore, from equation (1),

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{36}}}$

Or $\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{x}{6})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{36}}}$

At x = 4,

$\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{4}{6})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{4^2}{36}}}$

$\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{2}{3})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{16}{36}}}$

$=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{\frac{36-16}{36}}}$

$=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{\frac{20}{36} }}$

$=\frac{1}{\sqrt{20}}$

$=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{5}}$

The difference between two number is 3.take the numbers as x and y form a equation?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The difference between two numbers are $3$ and numbers are $x$ and $y$ so the equation is $x-y=3$

How to find the equation and what is the equation ?

equation, statement of equality between two expressions consisting of variables and/or numbers. In essence, equations are questions, and the development of mathematics has been driven by attempts to find answers to those questions in a systematic way.

if the difference of two numbers are $3$

And one number is $x$ and another is $y$

So we write the equation with operation of subtraction

$x-y=3$
