Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been given in this question that sign telling path has a 2% grade.

2% grade means a rise of 2 meters for a horizontal change of 100 m (As given in the figure attached).

All the trigonometric ratios for the angle θ between the path and the horizontal are,

Sinθ = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

Cosθ = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

tanθ = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

Since measures of the opposite side and adjacent sides are given

Therefore, tangent ratio will be applied to get the measure of the angle,

tanθ = \frac{2}{100}

θ = \text{tan}^{-1}(\frac{2}{100})

Option (A) will be the answer.

Kyle ran 2/3 mi on Monday,1 1/6 mi on Tuesday, and 7/12 mi on Wednesday.
BartSMP [9]

you would change the denominators to the least common multiple, in this case, 12. then you would change the fractions to 8/12, 14/12, and 7/12. you would add those, and get 29/12. divide 29 by 12, and get 2. add the rest to get 2 5/12.

Find the area of a triangle with a =33, b =51, and c =42.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

d. 690.1 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can use the Heron's formula to calculate the area of the triangle, which is:

K=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

Where:

s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}

2. Calculate s:

s=\frac{33+51+42}{2}\\s=63

3. Substitute values into the formula shown above and calculate the area, as following:

K=\sqrt{63(63-33)(63-51)(63-42)}\\K=690.1units^{2}

4. Therefore, the area is 690.1 units².
