Answer:

Approx 61.554 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with the opposite and adjacent sides, we will use tangent as our ratio.

Since the angle of elevation is 72 degrees, the left side of our equation is tan(72).

The right side of the equation is opposite over adjacent.

x/20

Set these equal to each other.

tan(72) = x/20

Simplify.

20 tan(72)=x

20(3.078) = x

x is approximately 61.554.

notsponge [240]

Answer:

t_{n}=t_{n-1}+t_{n-2} +t_{n-4}

Step-by-step explanation:

t_{n}=multiple ways to climb a tower

When n = 1,

tower= 1 cm  

t_{1}= 1

When n = 2,

tower =2 cm   

t_{2}= 2

When n = 3,

tower = 3 cm

it can be build if we use three 1 cm blocks

t_{3} = 3

When n = 4,

tower= 4 cm

it can be build if we use four 1 cm blocks

t_{4} = 6

When n > 5

tower height > 4 cm

so we can use 1 cm, 2 cm and 4 cm blocks

so in that case if our last move is 1 cm block then t_{n-1} will be

n —1 cm

if our last move is 2 cm block then t_{n-2} will be

n —2 cm

if our last move is 4 cm block then t_{n-4} will be

n —4 cm

 

t_{n}=t_{n-1}+t_{n-2} +t_{n-4}

Answer:

0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

0.5\times \sqrt{0.09}-2\sqrt{0.05}+\sqrt \frac{1}{4}

We need to solve it.

We know that,

\sqrt{0.09}=0.3\ and\ \sqrt{0.05}=0.223

So,

0.5\times \sqrt{0.09}-2\sqrt{0.05}+\sqrt \frac{1}{4}=0.5\times 0.3-2\times 0.22+0.5\\\\=0.21

or

=\dfrac{21}{100}

So, the value of the given expression is equal to 0.21.
