Tan x = 292 / 131       where x = angle of elevation

x =  65.84 degrees

Tanα=height/shadow

α=arctan(height/shadow)

α=arctan(292/131)°

α≈65.84°  (to nearest hundredth of a degree)

Answer: 1008 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)

= 1 - (3/12)

= 9/12 = 3/4

We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.

= 3/4 × 1344

= 1008 letters

If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent . If a consistent system has exactly one solution, it is independent .

Given right triangle ABC, what is the value of tan(A)?
Angelina_Jolie [31]
You didn't provide more information regarding triangle but from given options, it seems that triangle has ratio from shortest side to longest side would be 5 : 12 : 13

So 13 would be hypotenuse since it is longest.

Now A cannot be right angle because tangent is not defined at 90°.

Also tan(A) would be ratio of opponent side to adjacent side (think SOH CAH TOA)

So either opposite side would be 5 or 12, and adjacent side would be 12 or 5 respectively.

So the answer is either 5 / 12 or 12 / 5 but only option provided is 12/5 so that would be your answer.

Final answer: 12 / 5

<h3>What is subtraction?</h3>

It simply implies subtracting something from an entity, group, location, etc. Subtracting from a collection or a list of ways is known as subtraction.

Mr. K's maths class is 1 and 1/4 hours long.

After working problems on the board for 55 minutes  or 11 / 12 hour.

He gave the students the rest of the class period to work on homework.

Then the number of hours that students have to work on homework will be

⇒ 1 + 1/4 - 11/12

⇒ 5 / 4 - 11/ 12

⇒ (15 - 11) / 12

⇒ 4/12

⇒ 1/3 hours

More about the subtraction link is given below.
