Answer:
(a) 169.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...
169.1 m
__
The relevant trig relation is ...
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...
cos(6°) = x/(170 m)
x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m
The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
Answer:
75%
Step-by-step explanation:
It went down by 3 so,
4-1=3
4 * 75% or 0.75=3

Answer:
slope is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope is
m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = -5+6 /2-3 = 1/-1 = -1
