You have to build the triangles.
They are such that:
h is the common height
x is the horizontal distance from the plane to one stone
Beta is the angle between x and the hypotenuse
Then in this triangle: tan(beta) = h / x ......(1)
1 - x is the horizontal distance from the plane to the other stone
alfa is the angle between 1 - x and h
Then, in this triangle: tan (alfa) = h / [1 -x ] ...... (2)
from (1) , x = h / tan(beta)
Substitute this value in (2)
tan(alfa) = h / { [ 1 - h / tan(beta)] } =>
{ [ 1 - h / tan(beta) ] } tan(alfa) = h
[tan(beta) - h] tan(alfa) = h*tan(beta)
tan(beta)tan(alfa) - htan(alfa) = htan(beta)
h [tan(alfa) + tan(beta) ] = tan(beta) tan (alfa)
h = tan(beta)*tan(alfa) / (t an(alfa) + tan(beta) )
To find the maximum for something pertaining to a liquid or etc.
1,024 is 4^5 hope this helps :)
Answer:
x = 49
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
= 
( cross- multiply )
5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
5x - 80 = 3x + 18 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x - 80 = 18 ( add 80 to both sides )
2x = 98 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 49
