Answer:
x = 437.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle at the top of the triangle = 90° - 29° = 61°
Using the sine ratio in the right triangle
sin61° =
= 
Multiply both sides by 500
500 × sin61° = x, hence
x ≈ 437.3
Answer: e + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
If the smaller number is x, then the larger number has to be 20 - x in order for the arithmetic mean to be 10, as their sum must be 20.
If the geometric mean is 8 the product of the numbers has to be 64 and so the larger number is 64/x
Solving 64/x = 20 - x gives the quadratic x^2 -20x +64 = 0 so x = 4 or 16.
The two numbers are 4 and 16.
