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

- Suppose you increase your running speed from 7 m/s to 9 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is
loris [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 7 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 9 m/s
  • Time taken (t) = 2s

\dashrightarrow \quad \rm {a = \dfrac{v -u}{t} } \\

  • <em>a</em> denotes acceleration
  • <em>v</em> denotes final velocity
  • <em>u</em> denotes initial velocity
  • <em>t</em> denotes time

\dashrightarrow \quad \rm {a = \dfrac{9 -7}{2} \; m \: s^{-2}} \\

\dashrightarrow \quad \rm {a = \dfrac{2}{2} \; m \: s^{-2}} \\

\dashrightarrow \quad \underline{\boxed{\bf {a = 1 \; m \: s^{-2}}}} \\ (Answer)

(will give brainliest) find the value of x
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

x = 180 - [(180 - 3x) + (180 - 2x)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off by finding the angles of the triangle

Angle F = 180 - 3x

The angle across from I (which I will call I) = 180 - 2x

Angle G = 180 - (F + I)

Now that we know what G is, we know what x is because the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem states that if a pair of parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent. So pretty much X = G

Therefore x =  180 - (F + I) or otherwise said as:

x = 180 - [(180 - 3x) + (180 - 2x)]

I hope this is helpful :)

Point Q is on line segment PR. Given QR=11 and PQ=3, determine the length PR.
klio [65]

Answer:

\huge \boxed{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Q is a point on the line segment PR.

PQ = 3

QR = 11

PR = PQ + QR

PR = 3 + 11 = 14
