A. David notices that the shape of the Ligersville toxic dumpsite is somewhat like a triangle. He claims that he can approximate

the perimeter of the dumpsite without doing any extra measurements. What assumption about side AB of the dumpsite would David need to make in order to justify his claim?
B. Based on the assumption in part A, determine the approximate length of side AB of the dumpsite. Explain your reasoning in at least two sentences.

C. Determine the approximate perimeter of the Ligersville toxic dumpsite. Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

A. Side AB is approximately straight and forms the hypotenuse side of the right triangle

B. 40 yards

C. 96 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The assumption about the curved side AB that David would need to make in order to justify his claim is that the side AB is straight and is the hypotenuse side of the right triangle.

B.  The length of AB is thus;

√(24² + 32²) = 40 yard

C. The approximate perimeter is therefore;

24 + 32 + 40 = 96 yards

Answer:

A) AB is approximately straight line

B) 40 yards

C) 96 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A) For the toxic dump site to be traingular, AB must be a straight line to form hypotneuse of the traingle and that the traingle is right angle triangle

B) assuming a right angle triangle, using pythagoras theorem

H²=P²+B²

H²= 24²+ 32²

H= 40 yards

C) Parameter= 24+32+40=96 yards

The value of 33 + 42 = ___.
frez [133]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

We line up the tens place of 33 and 42 as well as the ones place so that it looks like:

33

+42

--------

Then we add first the ones, which is 3 + 2 for 5. Then we add the tens together, 3 + 4 is 7. We put the five first since its in the ones place and the 7 second since its in the tens place for 75.

10. Two lighthouses are located on a north-south line.
Kamila [148]

The question is an illustration of bearing (i.e. angles) and distance (i.e. lengths)

The distance between both lighthouses is 5783.96 m

I've added an attachment that represents the scenario.

From the attachment, we have:

\mathbf{\angle A = 180^o - 120^o\ 43'}

Convert to degrees

\mathbf{\angle A = 180^o - (120^o +\frac{43}{60}^o)}

\mathbf{\angle A = 180^o - (120^o +0.717^o)}

\mathbf{\angle A = 180^o - (120.717^o)}

\mathbf{\angle A = 59.283^o}

\mathbf{\angle B = 39^o43'}

Convert to degrees

\mathbf{\angle B = 39^o + \frac{43}{60}^o}

\mathbf{\angle B = 39^o + 0.717^o}

\mathbf{\angle B = 39.717^o}

So, the measure of angle S is:

\mathbf{\angle S = 180 - \angle A - \angle B} ---- Sum of angles in a triangle

\mathbf{\angle S = 180 - 59.283 - 39.717}

\mathbf{\angle S = 81}

The required distance is distance AB

This is calculated using the following sine formula:

\mathbf{\frac{AB}{\sin(S)} = \frac{AS}{\sin(B)} }

Where:

\mathbf{AS = 3742}

So, we have:

\mathbf{\frac{AB}{\sin(81)} = \frac{3742}{\sin(39.717)}}

Make AB the subject

\mathbf{AB= \frac{3742}{\sin(39.717)} \times \sin(81)}

\mathbf{AB= 5783.96}

Hence, the distance between both lighthouses is 5783.96 m
