Answer:

Height of the sail is 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sail is in the shape of a triangle and the formula of a triangle is

Area = (1/2)×Base×Height

Area of the sail has been given in the question and we have to calculate the height of the sail.

40.5 = (1/2)× Height× Height ( since base = height)

40.5×2 = height² = 81

height = √81 = 9 feet.

Both base and height of the sail is 40 1/2 feet.

A sail is triangular in shape. Finding the area of a triangle is multiplying its base and height and dividing the product by 2.

A = 1/2 bh

Area = 40 1/2 or 40.50 sq. ft
Since base and height are equal.
40.50 x 2 = 81
bh = 81
bh = 81 ÷ 2
b = 40 1/2 ft
h = 40 1/2 ft

What are the x-intercept of sin(x)?
boyakko [2]
The x-intercept of a function is the value of x when y is 0. So let's set sin(x) equal to zero. When does sin(x) equal zero? Based on the unit circle, you know that sin(0) is 0, so that is one x-intercept. You also know that sin(pi) is 0. Basically, every time x, starting from zero, increases or decreases by a multiple of pi, sin(x) is still zero. The answer can be represented by x=n*pi; where n=any integer.
