Answer:
1. A = 59
2. A = 43
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a right triangle we can use sin, cos and tan.
sin = opp/ hypotenuse
cos= adjacent/ hypotenuse
tan = opposite/ adjacent
For the first problem, we know the opposite and adjacent sides to angle A
tan A = opposite/ adjacent
tan A = 8.8 / 5.2
Take the inverse of each side
tan ^-1 tan A = tan ^-1 (8.8/5.2)
A = 59.42077313
To the nearest degree
A = 59 degrees
For the second problem, we know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse to angle A
cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos A = 15.3/21
Take the inverse of each side
cos ^-1 cos A = cos ^-1 (15.3/21)
A = 43.23323481
To the nearest degree
A = 43 degrees
The volume of a pyramid is one-third the volume of a prism.
The formula for the volume of a pyramid is V = 1/3Bh
B. Yes it's an exponential function because the y is increasing rapidly without a constant rate of change
Answer:
The answer is 30
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to find 120% of a (12).
Therefore; 14.4 is 80% of b, and we are trying to find 100% of b
we do not know what is 100% therefore we call it *x*. In order to find this unknown value *x* we cross multiply.
This is the same as saying;
100% percent would be 1 because it is the whole number we are trying to find. The 80% would be 4/5. To get 4/5 you can simply break down 80/100 ( this is 80% as a fraction).
so the new equation is: 14.4= 4/5x
We divide both sides by 4/5. Then we will get x tobe equal to 18. Therefore b is 18. We were asked to find (a + b) so.<em> </em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em>+</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>30</em>
Answer:
7.96 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Length of ramp L = 8 ft
Angle with the horizontal (ground) = 6°
Applying trigonometry;
With the length of ramp as the hypothenuse,
The horizontal distance d as the adjacent to angle 6°
Since we want to calculate the adjacent and we have the hypothenuse and the angle. We can apply cosine;
Cosθ = adjacent/hypothenuse
Substituting the values;
Cos6° = d/8
d = 8cos6°
d = 7.956175162946
d = 7.96 ft
The building is 7.96ft away from the entry point of the ramp.
