Answer:

5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

From ΔBCD, ∠BCD = 90-∠ACD

∠BCD = 90-60

∠BCD = 30°

Also tan60 = CD/BD

tan 60 = CD/5

CD = 5tan60

CD = 5√3 cm

Similarly from ΔACD, tan30 = CD/AD

tan30 = 5√3/AD

AD = 5√3/tan30

AD =  5√3/(1/√3)

AD = 5√3 * √3/1

AD = 5 cm

Hence the length of side AD is 5cm

Blizzard [7]

Given :

A college cafeteria pays student cashiers $540 per hour. Cashiers earn an additional  $110 per hour for each hour worked over 35 hours per week.

To Find :

A cashier worked 39  hours one week and 37 hours the second week.

Show and explain to the cashier how her salary calculated in this two-week period.

Solution :

Week 1 :

For first 35 hours he will get fixed amount i.e $540.

Now, for next four hours he will get $110 per hour.

So, total salary, T = 540 + (110×(39 - 35)

T = $980

Week 2 :

Total salary, T = 540 + ( 110×( 37 - 35 ))

T = $760

Therefore, salary of two week period is $( 980 + 760 ) = $1740.
