Answer: The flagpole is about 22.3 feet tall.
This is roughly the size of a two story building, assuming each floor is 10 feet or so.
Since this height is under 25 ft, this flagpole is in compliance with the regulation.
=====================================================
Work Shown:
The horizontal leg of the triangle is 36 ft. This is the adjacent leg to the reference angle 25 degrees.
The vertical leg of the triangle is x-5.5, and this leg is the opposite side to the reference angle 25 degrees.
Use the tangent rule to connect the opposite and adjacent sides.
Solve for x.
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(25) = (x-5.5)/36
36*tan(25) = x-5.5
x-5.5 = 36*tan(25)
x = 36*tan(25)+5.5
x = 22.28707569358
x = 22.3 ft is the approximate height of the flagpole
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
The height is not over 25 ft, so this flagpole meets the requirements.
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Factor left side of equation.
(2x−1)(x−3)=0
Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.
x−3=0
ANSWER:
x=3
Answer:
8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Oliver rolls his ball 1/9th of the distance Fabienne rolls his, so just divide 72 by 9 to get your answer.
X=-12,0
Y=-0,12 hope this helps:/
The slide needs to be 4.123 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Length for the ladder- 1 mtr
Distance of the bottom of the slide from the ladder- 4 mtr
Length of the slide needed
We can view the whole set up in the form of a right-angled triangle with the base representing the slide distance from the ladder, ladder length representing altitude and slide length representing as hypotenuse (As provided in the diagram)
For right-angled triangle we know from Pythagoras theorem-
Base² + altitude²= hypotenuse
²
Substituting the values of base as 4 mtr and altitude as 1 m
(Hypotenuse)²= 17
∴ Hypotenuse (slide length) =4.123 mtr
∴ Length of the slide needed= 4.123 meters
