Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We use trig to answer these questions:
sin x = opposite side of a triangle / hypotenuse
cos x = adjacent side / hypotenuse
Construct a right triangle with hypotenuse 4 m and lower angle 68 degrees.
The height of the top of the ladder is then defined by:
sin 68 degrees = height / 4 m, which yields (4 m)(sin 68) = height =
3.71 m
and the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall as follows:
cos 68 degrees = horizontal distance / hypotenuse =
1.50 m
Answer:
5a^2
Step-by-step explanation:
5ax5a=5a^2
Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Property of addition:
-2 = 2x - 16
again
14 = 2x
property of division
7 = x
x = 7
Answer:
(a) 
or 
(b) 
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- North Dakota
--- Cheyenne, Wyoming
Solving (a): Inequality to compare both temperatures
From the given temperatures, we can conclude that:
or 
Because
i.e. 1 is greater than -2
or
i.e. -2 is less than 1
Solving (b): Inequality to compare the absolute values of the temperatures
We have:
The absolute values are:
By comparison:
or 
Because
i.e. 2 is greater than 1
or
i.e. 1 is less than 2
