Answer:

  32°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the trig function relating angles to the opposite and adjacent sides of the triangle is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The side opposite the angle x is shown as having measure 5; the side adjacent has measure 8. Putting all this in the above equation gives ...

  tan(x) = 5/8

To find the angle from the value of the tangent, you use the inverse of the tangent function. The name of that is the <em>arctangent</em> function. It is often written as tan⁻¹(x) and often accessible on your calculator using a "second function" key. Some calculators, like the one shown in the attachment, recognize the arctan function name.

  x = arctan(5/8) ≈ 32°

The value of x rounded to the nearest whole degree is 32°.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: 19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.  

Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side  

Where α is the angle of depression of the dog, the opposite side (16) is Ted's eye level above the ground, and the adjacent side (x) is the distance between the dog and the barn door.

Replacing with the values given:  

tan40 = 16/x

Solving for x  

x =16/tan40

x= 19 ft  

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer: I believe the answer is O passing materials in blood to cells

Step-by-step explanation:

The thin walls of the capillaries allow oxygen and nutrients to pass from the blood into tissues and allow waste products to pass from tissues into the blood.

More info: Capillaries

Capillaries - Enable the actual exchange of water and chemicals between the blood and the tissues. They are the smallest and thinnest of the blood vessels in the body and also the most common. Capillaries connect to arterioles on one end and venules on the other.
