See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

tan 29°=AC/CB--------> CB=AC/tan 29°
AC=110 ft
CB--------> <span>how far the man is from the helicopter landing pad
</span>so
CB=AC/tan 29°----------> CB=110/ tan 29°----------> CB=198.45 ft

the answer is
the man is 198.45 ft from the helicopter landing pad

Find the Diameter of the Circle with the following equation. Round to the nearest tenth.

Radda [10]

The diameter of the circle is 11.8 units

<h3>How to determine the diameter of the circle?</h3>

The circle equation is given as:

(x - 2)^2 + (y + 6)^2 = 35

A circle equation is represented as:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

Where

Diameter = 2r

By comparing both equations, we have

r^2 = 35

Take the square root of both sides

r = 5.9

Multiply by 2

2r = 11.8

Hence, the diameter of the circle is 11.8 units
