Answer:
The distance between the end of the ramp and the bottom of the platform is about 9.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
use the pythagorean theorem (a²+b²=c²) to solve
a and b are the legs, c is the hypotenuse
plug in given values:
2² + x² = 10²
solve for x:
x² + 4 = 100
x² = 96
x ≈ 9.80
The answer is C) 1/7 of 3.
Because all others are correct and this one is incorrect.
Answer:
3/11 = 6/22
Step-by-step explanation:
3*2=6.
so 11*2 = 22
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope from the two points given
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (1- -2)/(2 - -2)
= (1+2)/(2+2)
= 3/4
Step-by-step answer:
The first step in solving a problem of geometry and trigonometry is to draw a diagram, with all the given information in it. The attached image does just that.
Here, we have (horizontal) distance of building to the tower is 400'.
We see two right triangles, each with a leg of 400' (horizontal).
The vertical distances are denoted h1 and h2 for the angles of elevation 24 and 20 degrees respectively.
Using the definition of tangent, we have
h1= 400tan24=178.1
h2=400tan20=145.6
The height of the tower is therefore h1+h2=178.1+145.6=323.7 feet
