How do I solve this problem

1 answer:

4 0

-1 > (x + 4) / 2....multiply both sides by 2, eliminating the 2 on the right
2 * -1 > x + 4
-2 > x + 4 ....subtract 4 from both sides
-2 - 4 > x
-6 > x or x < -6

graphed : open circle (because there is no equal sign)...on -6, shading to the left

Pat needs to determine the height of a tree before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence. The angle

dem82 [27]

Answer:

229.23 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pictorial representation of the problem is attached herewith.

Our goal is to determine the height, h of the tree in the right triangle given.

In Triangle BOH

$Tan 60^0=\dfrac{h}{x}\\h=xTan 60^0$

Similarly, In Triangle BOL

$Tan 50^0=\dfrac{h}{x+60}\\h=(x+60)Tan 50^0$

Equating the Value of h

$xTan 60^0=(x+60)Tan 50^0\\xTan 60^0=xTan 50^0+60Tan 50^0\\xTan 60^0-xTan 50^0=60Tan 50^0\\x(Tan 60^0-Tan 50^0)=60Tan 50^0\\x=\dfrac{60Tan 50^0}{Tan 60^0-Tan 50^0} ft$
