Answer:

16m tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance casted by the shadow = 32m = hypotenuse

Angle of elevation = 30 degrees

Required

Height of the building = opposite

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

sin theta = opp/hyp

sin 30 = x/32

0.5 = x/32

x = 0.5 * 32

x = 16m

Hence the building is 16m tall

avanturin [10]

Answer:

9.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (18 − 19.6) / 1.2

z = -1.33

Use a chart or calculator to find the probability:

P(Z < z) = 0.0918

I need help on this one

You seem to have gotten m∠2. Remember that ∠1 and ∠2 are alternate interior angles, meaning they're both equal. Since they gave you m∠1 as being 26°, you now know the measure of ∠2.

As for m∠3 and m∠4, If you look at ∠3 you'll see that it is complementary to ∠1 (They both add up to 90°), so if you subtract m∠1 from 90° you'll have found m∠3. You find m∠4 the same way.

Hope this helped.

SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER ASAP FOR BRAINLIEST!!!!!

Answer:

 D     b = -2E +212

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by -2 for every 1000 ft

The initial value is 212 degrees

We can use

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the initial value

y = -2x +212

We are at an elevation of E thousand ft

Replace x with E

y = -2 *E +212

b is the boiling point at this elevation

We  replace y with b

b = -2E +212
