Set this up like a right triangle with the height of the triangle as 30, the angle across from that side, the reference angle, as 55, and the base is your unknown, x. This means that we have the angle, the side across from it, and the side adjacent to it. That sounds like the tangent ratio to me! Tangent of the angle is the side opposite over the side adjacent:
. Solving for x:
. Do that on your calculator in degree mode to get that the distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is 21 feet
Orders of Magnitude are in terms of scientific notation.
23,000 written in scientific notation is 2.3 x 10^4, it's magnitude is 4 ( the number 10 is raised to)
56 in scientific notation would be 5.6 x 10^1, its magnitude is 1.
4 - 1 = 3
2300 is 3 order of magnitudes larger.
The answer is 3.
Answer:
rotation
Step-by-step explanation:
because the earth rotates
Answer:
47/10 = 4 7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
3 2/5 + 1 3/10
1. Write mixed numbers as improper fractions:
17/5 + 13/10
2. Write equivalent fractions with a common denominator:
34/10 + 13/10
3. Add the numerators over the common denominator.
47/10
4. Simplify.
4 7/10
