Answer: 9.2m

Explanation: According to SOH CAH TOA

Cos 60° = Adjacent/Hypotenuse (CAH)

Given theta = 60° which is the elevation angle

Adjacent side which is the base of the set up (distance from the ladder to the wall) is 4.6m

Cos60° = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cos 60° = 4.6/Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 4.6/cos60°

Hypotenuse = 9.2m

The hypotenuse always the slanting and longest side of the set up which is the ladder according to the question.

Answer: D. 9.2 m

The angle of elevation of a ladder leaning against a wall is 60º and the foot of the ladder is 4.6 m away from the wall. The length of the ladder is:____________A. 2.3 mB. 4.6 mC. 7.8 mD. 9.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Angle of elevation A= 60°

Distance from the foot of the ladder to the wall x= 4.6m

Length of the ladder = L

CosA = adjacent/hypothenus = x/L

L = x/cosA

L = 4.6/cos60°

L = 9.2m

The length of the ladder is 9.2m

Find the image of triangle GHJ under the translation of (X,Y) ——> ( x-1, y-8)
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

triangle KLM

Step-by-step explanation:

Take one point on the initial triangle and move it according to the given translation to locate the image. I used point G. Its coordinate plot is at

(2,3). I perform the operation of the given translation to this. (X1-X2, y1-y2).

So, (2-1, 3-8). The new coordinates will be (1,-5) and the only triangle with these coordinates is triangle KLM.

Calculate the future value (in dollars) of $1,550 deposited into an account earning an annual simple interest rate of 4% compoun
RUDIKE [14]

Answer: the future value is $1748.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = 1550

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

n = 365 because it was compounded 365 times in a year.

t = 3 years

Therefore,.

A = 1550(1 + 0.04/365)^365 × 3

A = 1550(1+0.00011)^1095

A = 1550(1.00011)^1095

A = 1550 × 1.128

A = 1748.4
