I would say the answer is 8.25
<h3>
Answer: 100 meters</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
If you draw out the diagram, then you'll find that a 45-45-90 triangle forms. The nice thing about this type of triangle is that the two legs are always the same length. The horizontal leg is 100 meters, so the vertical leg must also be 100 meters.
Side note: this type of triangle is an isosceles right triangle.
---------
You could use the tangent rule to get the same thing
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(45) = 100/x
1 = 100/x
1*x = 100
x = 100
In this case, the opposite leg is the vertical leg since it is furthest from the angle of elevation.
Answer:
x=2 (-7 , then -5 for the drag part)
Answer:
5.8com shorter
Step-by-step explanation:
I used the pythagoremy theorem to find the missing side length.
