Complete Question

A twelve-foot ladder is leaning against a wall. If the ladder reaches eight ft high on the wall, what is the angle the ladder forms with the ground to the nearest degree?*

Answer:

42°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the diagram that is formed is a right angle triangle.

To solve for this, we would be using the trigonometric function of Sine.

sin θ = Opposite side/ Hypotenuse

From the question, we are told that:

12 foot ladder is leaning against a wall = Hypotenuse

The ladder reaches 8ft high on the wall = Opposite side.

Hence,

sin θ = 8ft/12ft

θ = arc sin (8ft/12ft)

= 41.810314896

Approximately to the nearest degree

θ = 42°

Therefore, the angle the ladder forms with the ground to the nearest degree is 42°

This figure shows circle Z with chords AB and RS . mAR=55° mRB=66° AB=8 m RS=8 m What is mRS?
Alina [70]
M AR = 55°
m RB = 66°
Like AB=8 m =RS →m RS = m AB

m AB = m AR + m RB
m AB = 55° + 66°
m AB = 121°

m RS = m AB
M RS = 121°

Answer: m RS is 121°

Natalia is moving into a new house. All together, her furniture weighs 2,896 pounds. If it takes 2 trucks to carry all of Natali
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1448 Pounds per truck

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 2896 by 2

If you haven't learned long division yet, try breaking up the number and dividing it by 2 like this:

2000/2=1000

800/2=400

90/2=45

6/2=3

Then, add them up and solve from there: 1000+400+45+3=1400+48=1448
