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)
Every time the y-value decreases by 1, the x-value increases by 2, so the slope is -1/2 throughout the line.
If the sides of the pentagon are the same length, it is probably a regular pentagon. If the angles are all the same within the shape, it is definitely a regular pentagon.
Answer:
54.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
65x2 is 130 130-950 is 820 then 820 divided by 15 is 54.6 therefore meaning you have to work 54.6 hours to get 950$ you can check this by doing 54.6x15+130, might not be exact because i rounded to the nearest tenth.
Hope this helps!
