You can draw a right triangle with the informatio.
The vertical change in elevation (unknown) is the opposed leg to the angle 15°
The distance from the surveyor to the point vertically below the point on the mountain is the adjacent leg = 6 miles.
Then tan(15°) = x / 6 => x = 6tan(15) = 1.61 miles
Answer: 1.61 miles
Answer:
- 4 1/2 + 3 1/4
-9/2 + 13/4
the lcm is 4
-18/4 + 13/4
=-5/4
= -1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. So dividing by 2/5 will give you the same answer as multiplying by 5/2.
Perimeter of the triangle, a+b+c
In this case, a=b=c=28
So, perimeter would be 28*3 = 84 cm
