Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From a horizontal distance of 80m, the angle of elevation to the top of a flagpole is 180. Calculate the height of the flagpole.

We solve the above question using the trigonometric function of Tangent

The formula is given as:

tan θ = Opposite/ Adjacent

θ = 180°

Adjacent = 80m

Opposite = Height = x

Hence,

tan 180 = x/80

Cross Multiply

x = tan 180 × 80

x = 0m

The height of the flag = 0

Solve the inequality -2x is less than or equal to 3x + 1 is less than or equal to 10

KatRina [158]

-2x < = 3x + 1 < = 10

split them
-2x < = 3x + 1 3x + 1 < = 10
-2x - 3x < = 1 3x < = 10 - 1
-5x < = 1 3x < = 9
x > = -1/5 x < = 3

solution is : -1/5 < = x < = 3 <==
