Hello!

To solve this, we need to use some trigonometry. We will want to find the length of the bottom. To do so we will need to find those two sides.

First of all, let's find the base of the left triangle. Let's find the tangent of 45.

tan45=1

Therefore, 30/x=1. Just from this, we can see that the base of this triangle is 30.

Now for the other one. Here we have the hypotenuse. As we are looking for the adjacent side, we can use the cosine.

cos60=0.5

This gives us the equation x/80=0.5

From here, we can see that x=40.

Now we add our lengths.

30+40=70

Therefore, the length between the walls is 70 meters.

I hope this helps!

What is the circumference of a circle with radius 3 cm to the nearest hundredth
Ksju [112]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is given by

C = 2*pi*r

C = 2* pi *3

C = 6 pi

The value depends on whether you use 3.14 for pi or the pi button

3.14 = 18.84

pi button 18.85

What are skew lines and parallel lines
Leni [432]

Two or more lines are parallel when they lie in the same plane and never intersect. The symbol for parallel is <span>||</span>. To mark lines parallel, draw arrows <span>(>)</span> on each parallel line. If there are more than one pair of parallel lines, use two arrows <span>(<span>>></span>)</span> for the second pair. The two lines below would be labeled <span><span><span>AB</span><span>←→</span></span> || <span><span>MN</span><span>←→−</span></span></span> or <span>l || m</span>.

For a line and a point not on the line, there is exactly one line parallel to this line through the point. There are infinitely many lines that pass through A, but only one is parallel to l.
