The definition of the tangent function tells you
tan(angle) = (300 ft) / (distance to mountain)
This equation can be rearranged to
(distance to mountain) = (300 ft) / tan(angle)
For the far end of the river,
distance to far end = (300 ft) / tan(24°) ≈ 673.8 ft
For the near end of the river
distance to near end = (300 ft) / tan(40°) ≈ 357.5 ft
Then the width of the river can be calculated by finding the difference of these distances:
width of river = distance to far end - distance to near end
width of river = 673.8 ft - 357.5 ft
width of river = 316.3 ft
The appropriate answer choice is
316 ft.

Answer:
x = 17 and y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a parallelogram
So AB = CD and AD = BC
so
3x - 9 = 42
3x = 51
x = 17
and
4y - 3 = 37
4y = 40
y = 10
Answer
x = 17 and y = 10
Answer:
60 & 55
Step-by-step explanation:
1. the sum of the angles 1; 2 and 3 is 180°, then
m∠1=m∠2=m∠3; ⇒m∠3=60°;
2. m∠3=m∠r; ⇒ m∠r=60°;
3. m∠α= 180-(m∠r+65°)°; ⇒ m∠α=55°
all the details are in the picture.
