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 closest to the total length of sex cars?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

D) 32.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to use the trigonometric ratio.

We need to find the length of the hypotenuse.

We use sin ratio.

Sin 38 = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Here opposite = 20, Hypotenuse = Length of the six cars

sin 38 = 20 / length of the six cars

The length of six cars = 20 / sin 38

The length of the six cars = 32.48

Which is closest to 32.5 ft

Thank you.

Choose the correct simplification of the expression (−2x + 10y)(4x − 6y). (1 point)
ELEN [110]
(-2x+10Y)(4X-6Y) can be simplified as -8x+-60Y because you have to combine like terms such as -2x and 4x.
