The length of guy wire needed to make an angle of 30° with the ground is 310 feet. The angle between the end of the shadow and the vertical side of the building is 23°
<h3>What is
trigonometric ratio?</h3>
Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.
a) Let l represent the length of the guy wire.
sin(30) = (170 - 15) / l
l = 310 feet
b) Let Ф represent the angle, hence:
tanФ = 100/230
Ф = 23°

Y = 180 - 52 - 59 = 69 degrees . . . . . . . . (angles on a straight line are supplementary, i.e. add up to 180 degrees)
x = 180 - 69 - 63 = 48 degrees . . . . . . . . (sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees)
Therefore, m/_x = 48 degrees.
Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
----
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
----
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
