ANSWER: Plane dropped 6097 feet in altitude.
BECAUSE: An airplane is at point A from where it continued to descend by 30° for an approximate distance of 2 miles
∠ACB = Angle of descent = 30°
Distance BC = 2 miles
Let the plane dropped the altitude = h miles
Now tan 30° =


h = 1.155 miles
h ≈ 1.16 miles
Since 1 mile = 5280 feet
1.15 miles = 5280×1.16 feet
= 6097 feet
Therefore, the plane dropped by 6097 feet vertically.

Divide 30 by it's half, add the half of 18 that has been divided by the half of the half of 12 after been divided by half.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

We want to divide 30 by it's half.

The half of 30 is 30/2 = 15

then we have: 30/15 = 2

Now we want to add the half of 18, that has ben divided by the half of the half of 12 hafter been divided by half.

The half of 12 is 12/2 =  6

the half of the half of 12 is 6/2 = 3

now, we wanto to divide the half of 18 by that number.

The half of 18 is 18/2 = 9

then we have 9/3 = 3

and we wanted to add this to the number previous found:

2 + 3 = 5

atroni [7]

Answer: 63.59cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area covered by the pitch will be gotten by finding the value of the area of the circle and this will be:

Area of q circle = πr²

where,

π = 3.14

r = radius = diameter/2 = 9cm/2 = 4.5cm

Area = πr² = 3.14 × 4.5²

= 3.14 × 20.25

= 63.59cm²

Therefore, the area covered by the pitch is 63.59cm²
