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

For the arithmetic sequence 42, 32, 22, 12... find the 18th term.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The18th term of the given sequence is -128

Explanation:

To find the 18th term of the sequence:

42, 32, 22, 12, ..., we need to find the nth term of the sequence first.

The nth term of a sequence is given be the formula:

T_n=a+(n-1)d

Where a is the first term, and d is the common difference.

Here, a = 42, d = 32 - 42 = -10

\begin{gathered} T_n=42+(n-1)(-10) \\ =42-10n+10 \\ T_n=52-10n \end{gathered}

To find the 18th terem, substitute n = 18 into the nth term

\begin{gathered} T_{18}=52-10(18) \\ =52-180 \\ =-128 \end{gathered}

In the figure, a∥e , m∥n , and m∠2 = 112°.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer

Find out the  m∠6  .

To prove

As given

a∥e , m∥n , and m∠2 = 112°.

As  m∥n

a is the transversal (A line that cuts across two or more (usually parallel) lines is called transverasl.)

Thus

∠ 2 = ∠3 ( Corresponding angle property )

∠3 = 112°

Also

a∥e and m is transversal .

∠ 3 = ∠6 = 112 ° ( Corresponding angle property )

Therefore

∠6 = 112°
