Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
40°
Step-by-step explanation:
As clarified in an online document, a translation along a vector (which is a line in a plane) of a figure, is equivalent to a translation along a coordinate grid, and therefore, given that a translation is a form of rigid transformation, the the dimensions and inclinations of the rays forming the preimage are the same as those in the image and the angles measurement in the preimage and the image are equal.
Therefore, given that the angle measurement of the image is 40-degrees, the angle measurement of the image is also 40-degree (40°) angle.
The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given
Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known
Here, if we use cos x = we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star
Note: cos values for each x are definite.
