It would be helpful if you draw the situation in the problem. We will see that a right triangle is made from the system. By using knowledge on trigonometric functions, we can calculate for the height of the roller coaster. We do as follows:

tan (65) = height / 130
height = 278.79 ft

Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

186.5 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, radify 25. Luckily it's a perfect square so it will be 5.

Second, divide within the parentheses. You're expression should look like this.

(93-5+x+42/8)2

Divide 42/8. The decimal form would be 5.25, while the fraction should be 5 1/4.

Third, solve within the parentheses from left to right. Right now you're expression should look like this:

(93-5+x+5.25)2

Add all like terms

93-5+5.25=93.25

Fourth, multiply. Right now the expression should look like this:

(93.25 + x) 2

186.5 + 2x

∠QPS is a right angle and m∠QPR = 71°, what is m∠RPS?
natta225 [31]

Answer: <RPS = 161

Step-by-step explanation:

P is the common vertex in all of these angles. From this we know that these have to be adjacent angles (<QPR and <QPS) that equal the whole angle (<RPS)

<QPR+<QPS= <RPS

71+90= 161

(<QPS is a right angle. Right angles are equal to 90 degrees.)

Brett painted three walls. Each wall was 9 ft tall and 12 ft long. How much wall area did he paint
julsineya [31]

Answer:

First we need to calculate the are of each wall, since we alredy knew the length (l) and the width (w) which is the height of the wall in this case:

A = wl = 9 . 12 = 108 (ft²)

We also know that he painted 3 walls, we need to multiply our first result by 3, in other words, the area of wall that Brett painted is the sum of the area of three walls: 108 . 3 = 324 (ft²)
