The answer would be the third one .
Perpendicular would always be the opposite of your original slope.
Hope this helps! (:
Answer:
n = 8.15
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 is 4 & 3/5 % of what number?
Rewrite this as: 3/8 is (4 3/5)% of what number?
Convert 4 3/5% into a decimal: 0.046
Then write out and solve the equation 3/8 = 0.046n, where n is the unknown number.
Dividing both sides by 0.046, we get n = 8.15
<span>(A) Find the approximate length of the plank. Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.
Given that the distance of the ground is 3ft.
In order to get the length of the plank,
we can use the this one.
cos 49 = ground / plank
cos 49 = 3 / plank
plank = cos 49 / 3
plank = 0.10 ft
</span><span>(b) Find the height above the ground where the plank touches the wall. Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.
</span><span>
The remaining angle is equal to
angle = 180 - (90+49)
angle = 41
Finding the height.
tan 41 = height / ground
tan 41 = height / 3
height = tan 41 / 3
height = 0.05 ft.
(A) 0.10 feet
(B) 0.05 feet</span>
Give me a picture of the problem and i will solve it
