Answer:

The angle is 50.2°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tree and its shadow from a right triangle with the tree being the perpendicular and the shadow being the base as shown in the figure attached.

Therefore the angle θ formed by the sun's rays and the ground is:

\theta = tan^-1(\frac{18}{15} )=\boxed{50.2^o}

Find the slope of the tangent to y= -7Sin(x)+2cos(x) at x= 3π/4
BaLLatris [955]
Y = -7sin(x) + 2cos(x)
y = -7sin(3π/4) + 2cos(3π/4)
y = -7sin(9.42/4) + 2cos(9.42/4)
y = -7sin(2.355) + 2cos(2.355)
y = -7(0.03698381721) + 2(0.9993158646)
y = -0.2588867205 + 1.998631729
y = 1.739745009
