The distance between the tree and the tower is 30√3m.

Justification:

<u>Let the situation be in a right angleABC form as shown in attached figure</u>.

<u>Given the height of the tower is 30m and the angle of depression to the base of the tree measure 30°</u>.

So, In ΔABC

tanθ = p/b

tan30° = 30/BC

1/√3 = 30/BC

BC = 30√3m.

Answer:

  30√3 m ≈ 52 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The side ratios in a 30°-60°-90° triangle are 1 : √3 : 2. The long leg of the triangle is √3 times 30 m, or about 51.96 m.

The distance between the tree and the tower is about 30√3 m ≈ 52 m.

__

If you haven't memorized the ratios of this special triangle, you can use the relation ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(30°) = 30/d

  d = 30/tan(30°) = 30√3 = 51.96 . . . . same as above

.At a certain animal shelter, the ratio of puppies to adult dogs is 7 to 4. This week there are a total of55 dogs in the shelter
Advocard [28]

Answer:

There are 35 adult dogs and 20 puppies

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Represent the puppies with P and the Adult dogs with A</em>

Given

A : P = 7 : 4

Dogs = 55

Required

Determine A and P

First, we need to sum the ratios;

Total = A + P

Total = 7 + 4

Total = 11

Adult Dogs is then calculated as follows;

A = \frac{A\ Ratio}{Total} * Dogs

A = \frac{7}{11} * 55

A = \frac{385}{11}

A = 35

Puppies is calculated by subtracting the number of adult dogs from the total

P = Dogs - Adult\ Dogs

P = 55 - 35

P = 20

<em>Hence;</em>

<em>There are 35 adult dogs and 20 puppies</em>
