4500 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can begin by finding x using the tangent rule;

The tangent of the angle = the length of the opposite side / the length of the adjacent side

Tan 35 = 3500 / x

X = 3500 / tan 35

X  = 3500 / 0.7

X = 5000

Now that we have x we can calculate the value of ? using the same tangent rule;

Tan 42 = ? / 5000

? =  tan42 * 5000

? = 0.9 * 5000

? = 4500

(1) a) 5270 cl= ? dal
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Check below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) These metric volume units can be easily converted by dividing or multiplying by 10 and its multiple. Like this: each step up on the ladder multiply by 10. Each step down divide by 10

a)5270 \:cl=527\:dl\\b)kl=5.3 \times 10=530 hl\\c)58000ml=5.8 dal =(\frac{58000}{10000})\\d)0.39 dal=3.9 l\\e)7.8 dal=780 dl\\f)57.2 ml=5.72 cl.

2) When it comes to area, the "ladder scheme" remains valid but now we'll multiply or divide by

10^3

Bear in mind these useful relations:

1litre =\frac{1}{10^3}m^{3}

1 cm^{3} =1 ml

a) 3.7 l=3700 cm^{3}\\b)29.6 dm^{3}\\29.6 dm^{3} \rightarrow 29.6\times10^{3} cm^3=29.6\times10^{3} ml = 29.6\times10^{2} cl \:or\:2960 cl\\c)8.1l=8100 cm^{3}\\d)5l=\frac{5}{10^{-3}} m^{3}\\e)5.2 cl=52ml=52 cm^{3}=52\times10^{3}=52000 \:mm^{3}\\f)375 ml=375 cm^{3}\\g) 1300 cm^{3}=1300 ml=13 dl\\h) 8.6 ml= 8.6 cm^{3}\times\: 10^{3}=8600 mm^{3}\\i) 51.8\times 10^{11} l \rightarrow 51.8\times 10^{-11}km^{3}

Liono4ka [1.6K]
Its C because the 18in is the height, the 12in is the width, the 24in is the length. Which you just multiply together.
