Answer:

Biff height = 9.48m

Rocco's height= 4.74m

Step-by-step explanation:

As Rocco's tree is half as tall as Biff's tree, draw a horizontal line from Rocco on Rocco's tree which intersects the Biff's tree at he middle.

The angle 70 degrees is divided by 2 because of the horizontal line.

An upper right angle triangle is form by Rocco (point A), Midpoint of Biff's tree(point B), and Biff (point C).

As

tan\theta = \frac{perpendicular}{base\\}

where θ=35 and  base= 10m

tan35=\frac{perpendical}{10}

(tan35)(10)=perpendicular\\perpendicular=4.74

As the perpendicular found is that of a triangle formed from midpoint of Biff's, to find the total height, multiply the found perpendicular with 2.

Biff height = 4.74*2 = 9.48m

Rocco's height is half of biff height

Rocco's height= 9.48/2 = 4.74m

Answer:

Biff's tree is 14 m off the ground and Rocco's tree is 7 m off the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of Biff's tree be represented by x, so that the height of Rocco's tree is \frac{x}{2}.

Draw a straight line from Rocco's point of view to a point t to the middle of Biff's tree. This line divides x into two equal parts, and the angle is divided into 35^{0} each.

By alternate angle property,

Tan  35^{0} = \frac{\frac{x}{2} }{10}

\frac{x}{2} = Tan  35^{0} × 10

  = 7.00021

⇒       x = 2 × 7.0021

            = 14. 0042

         x = 14

Therefore, Biff's tree is 14 m off the ground and Rocco's tree is 7 m off the ground.

Identify the square root of 2 as either rational or irrational, and approximate to the tenths place
Pie

Answer: Irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

It is irrational because you cannot multiply a number by the same number to get the square root of 2.

I think the approximation is 1.4 or 1.42

An athlete ran 800 meters in 160 seconds. What was his rate in meters per minute? Enter your answer in the box.
FromTheMoon [43]

The athlete's average speed was 300 meters/minute.

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the athlete?</h3>

To calculate the speed of the athlete we must perform the following operations.

Divide the distance into the total time:

  • 800m ÷ 160sec = 5m/sec

Transform the value from seconds to minutes, for which we must multiply 5 by 60 because each minute is made up of 60 seconds.

  • 5m/sec × 60sec = 300m/min

According to the above, the average speed of the athlete is 300m/min.

Please help!<br><br><br> Solve the inequality for x<br><br> 3(x + 4) &gt; 4 - X
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

x>-2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) > 4 - X

Distribute

3x+12> 4-x

Add x to each side

3x+12+x > 4-x+x

4x+12 > 4

Subtract 12 from each side

4x+12-12>4-12

4x> -8

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 > -8/4

x>-2
