Answer:

3 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If everyone in the class has either a pierced nose or ear, we just simply have to add up the total number of hands raised and minus the number of students in the class.

35+8=43

43-40=3

3 students have both a pierced nose and pierced ear.

mario62 [17]
Imagine the side of the building is one side to a triangle and the second would be from the top of the building to the point where the shadow ends and the third is from the base of the building to the point where the shadow ends. Just use the pythagoreon theorem to find stuff. I can't solve the problem you gave because you would need the height of the building

Find x.<br> Round to the nearest tenth:<br> 28°<br> 350 ft<br> y<br> x = [ ? ]ft
Korolek [52]

Answer:

745.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle (θ) = angle of depression = angle of elevation = 28° (alternate angles are congruent)

Opposite side = 350 ft

Hypotenuse = x

Apply the trigonometric function, SOH:

Sin θ = Opp/Hyp

Sin 28° = 350/x

x = 350/Sin 28

x = 745.5 ft (nearest tenth)
