Bella wants to know how tall the oak tree in her back yard is, so she picks
1 answer:
Answer:
B = 62.9ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance where she is from the oak tree is 75ft,
The angle of elevation the stone makes with the top of the oak tree is 40°
The height of the tree is x ft
See attached document for better illustration
Using SOHCAHTOA,
Tanθ = opposite/ adjacent
θ = 40°
Opposite = x ft
Adjacent = 75ft
Tan40 = x / 75
X = 75 × tan40
X = 75 × 0.8390
X = 62.92ft
The height of the oak tree is 62.9ft

<h3>Answer: Choice A) <9,0></h3>
Explanation:
Focus on one of the points in the figure on the left. Let's say we go for the upper left corner point (-7, 4)
Notice it moves to the corresponding image point (2,4). It has shifted 9 units to the right to follow the translation rule . We've added 9 to the x coordinate, and the y coordinate stays the same.
This notation can be shortened to <9, 0>
In general, the notation is shortened to the translation vector notation
. In this case, a = 9 and b = 0.
