Draw a triangle with shortest side on the ground (horiz.). The length of this side is 80 feet. Two angles touch the ground: a right angle, and the 70 degree angle.
Then the height of the building is the 2nd shortest side.
The tangent function is the appropriate one to use here:
opp h
tan 70 deg = -------- = ----------
adj 80 ft
h
Since tan 70 deg = 2.75, 2.75 = -------
80 ft
so h = building height = (80 ft)(2.75) = 219.8 ft
Answer:
There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.
Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1
Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i
Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have
x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.
Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2
Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii
Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.
y = 2x+6 ... iii
i-iii gives 0 = -x+6
Or x =6
Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18
Verify:
Original benches 6 and 18.
18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied
18-2 = 2(6+2)
II is also satisfied.
2/5 at the top nd bottom, but 0/5 on the sides. So 2/5 + 0/5= 1/5
