Solution:
use the trigonometric function which is tangent
tangent is equal to opposite/hypotenuse
the angle is 11 degrees
28 foot will be your opposite
your hypotenuse is the missing

tan(11 degrees)=28 foot/ hypotenuse
hypotenuse= [28 foot/ (tan 11 degrees)]
hypotenuse = 98.8 feet

Find the gradients of lines A and B.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Gradient of line A = 4

Gradient of line B = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we will use the formula for gradient passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2),

Gradient (m) = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

For line A,

Since, line A passes through (3, 6) and (4, 10)

Gradient of line A = \frac{10-6}{4-3}

                              = 4

For line B,

Since, line B passes through (1, 6) and (2, 4),

Gradient of line B = \frac{6-4}{1-2}

                             = -2
