To find the height of a pole a surveyor moves 140 feet away from the base of the pole and then with a transit 4 feet tall measur

es the angle of elevation to the top of the pole to be 44° to the nearest foot what is the height of the pole

Tan44°=x/140

x=135.19

x is the partial height of the pole after we exclude 4 feet tall height.

then add 4 to x=139.12 feet

Find the volume of the figure. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. Use 3.14 for .

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

$\boxed{\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} \approx \: 307.7 \: m {}^{3} } ( \rm \: nearest \: tenth )$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

radius = 7 metres
height = 2 metres
π = 3.14

To Find:

Volume of the cylinder

Solution:

Use the formulae of the volume of cylinder:

$\boxed{\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = \pi{r} {}^{2} h}$

where,

π = 3.14
r = radius
h = height

According to the question:

radius = 7 metres
height = 2 metres

Substitute the values onto the formulae in order to find out the volume:

$\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = \pi(7) {}^{2} (2)$

$\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = \pi(49)(2)$

$\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = 98\pi$

$\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = \: 98 \times 3.14$

$\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} = 307.72 \: m {}^{3} \: (exact \: form)$

$\boxed{\rm \: Volume_{(Cylinder)} \approx \: 307.7 \: m {}^{3} } \: ( \rm nearest \: tenth )$

<u>Hence,we can conclude that:</u>

The volume of the cylinder is approximately

307.7m³.

Can someone give me the steps to solving this?

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

$\tan \theta = \dfrac{8}{15}$

Step by step explanation:

$\text{Given that,}\\\\~~~~~~~\sin \theta = \dfrac{8}{17}\\\\\implies \sin^2 \theta = \dfrac{64}{289}\\\\\implies 1-\cos^2 \theta = \dfrac{64}{289}\\\\\implies \cos^2 \theta = 1-\dfrac{64}{289}\\\\\implies \cos^2 \theta = \dfrac{225}{289}\\\\\implies \cos \theta =\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{225}{289}}\\\\\implies \cos \theta = \pm\dfrac{15}{17}$

$\text{In quadrant I, all ratios are positive, so,}~ \cos \theta = \dfrac{15}{17}\\\\\text{Now,}\\\\\tan \theta = \dfrac{\sin \theta }{\cos \theta}\\\\\\~~~~~~~~=\dfrac{\tfrac{8}{17}}{\tfrac{15}{17}}\\\\\\~~~~~~~~=\dfrac{8}{17} \times \dfrac{17}{15}\\\\\\~~~~~~~=\dfrac{8}{15}$

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points? (1, 7), (10, 1) A. –2/3 B. 3/2 C. 2/3 D. –3/2

Orlov [11]

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (1 - 7)/(10 - 1) = -6/9 = -2/3
