Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we change both denominators to the LCM (lowest common multiple) which is 8.
Since the denominators are the same, we can add the numerators.
or it can be written as
I think any irrational number would do this? I'm not positive though. Some examples may be pi or the square root of 2.
If you sketch the man and the building on paper, you'll have a
right triangle. The right angle is the point where the wall of
the building meets the ground. The height of the building
is one leg of the triangle, the line on the ground from the
building to the man's feet is the other leg, and the line
from his feet to the top of the building is the hypotenuse.
We need to find the angle at his feet, between the hypotenuse
and the leg of the triangle.
Well, the side opposite the angle is the height of the building -- 350ft,
and the side adjacent to the angle is the distance from him to the
building -- 1,000 ft.
The tangent of the angle is (opposite) / (adjacent)
= (350 ft) / (1,000 ft) = 0.350 .
To find the angle, use a book, a slide rule, a Curta, or a calculator
to find the angle whose tangent is 0.350 .
tan⁻¹(0.350) = 19.29° . (rounded)
Answer:
The area of the triangle is of 8 units of area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The area of the triangle is of 21 units of area.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle with three vertices 
is given by the determinant of the following matrix:
In this question:
Vertices (1,0) (5,0) (3,4). So
The area of the triangle is of 8 units of area.
Answer:
-\frac{7}{6}
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the slope formula for the segment that joins any two points 
and 
:
which in our case gives:
