SOH CAH TOA -> \bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad \qquad 
% cosine
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\\ \quad \\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}

so.. which of those fellows do we use?
well, the triangle gives us

the angle, 15 degrees, for elevation angle
the adjacent side, 50m
and we want the opposite side, the slide

so...who has only, the angle, opposite, and adjacent sides?
well, low and behold, is Ms tangent
thus
\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
\theta\to 15^o\\
adjacent=50\\
opposite=x-15
\end{cases}
\\ \quad \\
tan(15^o)=\cfrac{x-15}{50}\implies 50tan(15^o)=x-15\\\\ 50\cdot tan(15^o)+15=x

notice, "x" in the picture, is the distance from the ground up to the top of the waterslide, using that triangle, what we're getting is just the distance, from the shorter slide, to the taller one, or x - 15
thus, the opposite side is x -15

How do I solve -5 - (15y - 1) = 2 (7y - 16) - y
Aleks [24]
If you want to solve the equation -5 - (15 * y - 1) = 2 * (7 * y - 16) - y, you can calculate this using the following steps:

-5 - (15 * y - 1) = 2 * (7 * y - 16) - y
-5 - 15 * y + 1 = 14 * y - 32 - y
-5 + 1 + 32 = 14 * y - y + 15 * y
28 = 28 * y    /28
y = 1

The result is 1.

PLEASE HELP GIVING BRAINLIST!!! Given ΔXYZ is isosceles, what is XZ if the perimeter is 107 units and XZ = 1/2 XY?
Tema [17]
  • XY+YZ+XZ=107

XY and YZ be x

  • x+x+1/2x=107
  • 2x+1/2x=107
  • 4x+x/2=107
  • 5x/2=107
  • 5x=214
  • x=42.8units
