Answer: x ≈ 18 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use our trig knowledge to solve this.
The man is standing 10 ft away, but we also need to add the 5 ft shadow as well as that is a point on our triangle.
We can set up a simple trig equation of: tan(50) = x/15
x being the height of the lamppost.
Now we solve.
tan(50) = 1.1918
1.1918 *15 = x
x = 17.876
Now round to the nearest foot.
x ≈ 18 ft
Answer:
D=-12
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/3D=8
=(Multiply each side by 3/-2)
3/-2*-2/3D=8*3/-2
=D=-12
C and E, I believe since the other theorems don’t exist and AAS does not apply
Answer: y=
+2
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>This is y intercept form</em>
First you find the slope
Then you find the y intercept and plug it in t the equation y=mx+b
1 1/5 can be written as 6/5
7 1/2 can be written as 15/2
Let X be the number of laps Kellyn wants to jog to meet her 7 1/2 mile goal:
6/5x = 15/2 Multiply both sides by (5/6), the inverse of 6/5
x = 15(5) / 2 ( 6)
x = 75 / 12
X = 25 / 4, or 6 and 1/4 laps
