Answer:

  110sin(72°) feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle with the 110 ft ladder as the hypotenuse, the side opposite the 72° angle represents the maximum height the ladder will reach. The definition of the sine function tells you ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

so the Opposite side will be ...

  ladder height = (110 ft)sin(72°)

A drawer contains 12 brown socks and 12 black socks, all unmatched. A man takes socks out at random in the dark. 21. Required in
avanturin [10]

Answer:

6  socks

Step-by-step explanation:

What we must do is calculate the probability of this happening, that he takes out two black socks in the first two taken out.

There are 12 black socks and in total they are 24, therefore the probability of drawing 1 is:

12/24

and now the probability of getting another one is 11 (there is one less outside) and in total they are 23:

11/23

the final probability is the multiplication of these events:

(12/24) * (11/23)

P = 0.24

Now, to know how many you should get, we multiply the probability by the total number of socks, that is:

0.24 * 24 = 5.76

So you must take out at least 6 socks for the above to happen.
