Answer:
928
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
this creates a right-angled triangle.
the right angle (90°) being the angle between flag pole and ground.
the angle ground-wire is 50°.
because we know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°, we know then that the angle flagpole-wire is
180 - 90 - 50 = 40°
so, we have the situation to know 1 side and all angles.
to get the other sides we use best the law of sine :
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
where the sides and related angles are always opposite of each other.
in our case now we have
24/sin(50) = wire/sin(90) = wire/1 = wire = 31.32977494... ft
so, the rounded answer is that the wire must be
31.3 ft long
I'm guessing the repeating part is 89 at the end, so that

Then

An arguably quicker way without using geometric series:




(n+1)x 2=10
2n+2=10
2n=8
n=4
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Don't let the variable confuse you. Replace n with 9. Then, subtract 9 from 15.
