SOVing Problems With Right Triangles: Mastery Test

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a right angled triangle with a hypotenuse of 16 feet and an angle of 60° between the hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The height of the pole is the side opposite to the angle 60°.

The trigonometric function states that for a right angled triangle:

sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse, cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse, tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

To find the height of the flagpole, we use:

sin(60) = height / 16

height = 16 * sin(60)

height = 13.86 ft

The person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole is  Charlie when he should have utilized the  sin function. Because he incorrectly selected the  function.

aleksklad [387]
Perhaps you could just outline the topic lightly but try your best not to give away your topic idea. In this case talk about technology but don't talk about the dependency of technology, for the first paragraph as mentioned in your title text and then in your second paragraph you could talk about the dependency of technology.
