Let the height of the first tower be x, then the second tower is (160 - x) m taller than the first tower. Then
tan 30 = (160 - x)/80
160 - x = 80 tan 30
x = 160 - 80 tan 30 = 160 - 46.19 = 113.8 m

Therefore, the height of the first tower is 113.8 m.

I need help with this
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

x = 24.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

24² + 5² = x²

576 + 25 = x²

601 = x²

√601 = x

Can two box plots have the same range and iqr
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Yes they can!  Just because two plots have the same IQR and range, does not mean that the rest of the data has to be the exact same.  For example, the median.
