From the last answer
angle CPD = 38°
agian,
angle BPC + angle CPD = 90° ( sum of complementary angles)
or, angle BPC + 38 = 90
or, angle BPC = 90 - 38
or, angle BPC = 52°
therefore BPC = 52
In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. Frequently, especially in trigonometry, the unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin (0, 0) in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Euclidean plane.
You divide the percent by 100 then you would get a fraction
Answer:
approx. 24.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
x=the distance of the fire from the base of the tower
200ft=the height of the tower
7 degrees=the angle of depression
Using these values you can draw a diagram that highlights that you need to use trig. to work out the answer.
Using Tan:
Tan 7=x/200 ft
multiply both sides by 200 ft
200*tan 7=24.55691218
approx. 24.6 ft
