Problem 8) In the diagram, RQ ⊥ PQ, m∠QPS = 32°, m∠RPS = 24°, and PQ = 14.Find RS to the nearest tenth of a unit. Image is provi

Sav [38]

Since S is a point on the segment QR, then:

$QS+SR=QR$

Use the diagram and trigonometric relationships to find the value of QS and QR. Then, use the above equation to solve for SR.

In the right triangle PQS, the side QS is opposite to the angle of 32º, and the side PQ is adjacent to the angle of 32º. Then, use the tangent trigonometric function to relate PQ to QS:

$\tan\left(32º\right)=\frac{QS}{PQ}$

Isolate QS and replace PQ=14:

$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow QS=PQ\cdot\tan\mleft(32º\mright) \\ \operatorname{\Rightarrow}QS=14\tan\mleft(32º\mright) \end{gathered}$

On the other hand, notice that the side QR in the right triangle PQR is opposite to the angle QPR, which has a measure of 32º+24º=56º.

Then, by a similar reasoning, we can use again the tangent function to find QR:

$\begin{gathered} \tan\mleft(56º\mright)=\frac{QR}{PQ} \\ \Rightarrow QR=PQ\cdot\tan\mleft(56º\mright) \\ \Rightarrow QR=14\cdot\tan\mleft(56º\mright) \end{gathered}$

We have found expressions for QS and QR in terms of trigonometric relationships. Then, we can find an expression for SR:

$\begin{gathered} QS+SR=QR \\ \Rightarrow SR=QR-QS \end{gathered}$

Replace the expressions for QR and QS:

$SR=14\tan\mleft(56º\mright)-14\tan\mleft(32º\mright)$

Use a calculator to find decimal expressions for tan(56º) and tan(32º). Then, find SR:

$\begin{gathered} SR=14\times1.482560969...-14\times0.6248693519... \\ \Rightarrow SR=12.00768263... \end{gathered}$

Therefore, to the nearest tenth, the length of the side SR (or RS, which is the same) is 12.0.

What is the solution of the system of equations? 6x-2y = 4 -9x+3y = 12

katrin2010 [14]

We will have the following:

First, we solve both equations for y, that is:

$6x-2y=4\Rightarrow-2y=-6x+4$ $\Rightarrow y=3x-2$

&

$-9x+3y=12\Rightarrow3y=9x+12$ $\Rightarrow y=3x+4$

From this we can see that they are parallel lines, that do not share any common points, so there is no solution for the system.

A photographer is 6 feet tall and cast a shadow that is 2 feet long. He is photographing a palm tree with a shadow that is 7 fee

Novay_Z [31]

Answer: The height of the tree is 21 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can assume that the angle at which the sun impacts the photographer and the tree to be the same angle.

Then we can think in both cases as triangles rectangles, where the height is a cathetus, and the shadow is the other cathetus.

Then we will have a relationship like:

Tg(angle) = shadow/height

height = shadow/Tg(angle)

Now, because for both triangles we have the same angle, then Tg(angle) will be the same number for both cases, and we can just think of it as constant K

Tg(angle) = K

Then we have the equation:

Height = Shadow/K

We know that the photographer is 6ft tall, and his shadow is 2 ft long, we can replace those two things in the above equation and find the value of k:

6ft = 2ft/K

K = 2ft/6ft = (1/3)

Now we know that the shadow of the tree is 7ft long, then the height will be:

height = 7ft/(1/3) = 7ft*3 = 21ft

The tree is 21 ft tall.
