Regina Falange is 173 cm tall, making her line of sight exactly 163 from the ground. She is looking at a hawk in a tree and both

are on level ground. The trunk of the tree is 10 meters away from her location and the angle of elevation from her eyeline to the hawk is 30 degrees. What is the hawk’s height above the ground?
a. Drawn a diagram that outlines the situation. Be sure to label the tree, hawk, Regina, the angle, etc.
b. Find the height of the hawk above the ground in cm. (Hint: Remember Regina’s height.) Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer: 7.40 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

I went with 163 cm for the height because it says her eyeline is at 163 cm. I don't assume she would be looking from the top of her head so I went with that over 173 cm(h for hawk)

All you do is:

tan(30)=opposite/adjacent

tan(30)=h/10

10*tan(30)=h

h≈5.77 meters

163cm converted to meters is 1.63 meters, so add it to 5.77 and you will get 7.40 meters

10p - (3p - 4) = 4(p + 1) + 9
andrezito [222]

Answer:

p = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute parenthesis on both sides of the equation

10p - 3p + 4 = 4p + 4 + 9 ( simplify both sides )

7p + 4 = 4p + 13 ( subtract 4p from both sides )

3p + 4 = 13 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3p = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

p = 3

What is the area of the composite figure? (6π 4) cm2 (6π 16) cm2 (12π 4) cm2 (12π 16) cm2
raketka [301]

The area of the considered composite figure is given by: Option: 6π + 16 cm²

<h3>How to calculate the surface area of a composite figure?</h3>

Surface area are derived for some standard shapes like circle, triangle, parallelogram, rectangle, trapezoid, etc.

When some shape comes which isn't standard figure, then we find its area by slicing it (virtually, like by drawing lines) in standard shapes. Then we calculate those composing shapes' area and sum them all.

Thus, we have:

\text{Area of composite figure} = \sum (\text{Area of composing figures})

That ∑ sign shows "sum"

For this case, the missing image is attached below.

As visible, the area of the figure = Sum of area of those 3 semi circles + Area of that square(its square because it has 4 equal sides in which adjacent sides are perpendicular) in between.

The side of the square is of 2+2=4 cm( as half of its side is 2 cm), thus, Area of that square = 4² = 16 cm²

All those 3 semicircles has radius = 2 cm

Since radius is same, so area of those 3 semicircle is same = \dfrac{\pi r^2}{2} = \dfrac{\pi (2)^2}{2} = 2 \pi\: \rm cm^2

Thus, we get:

Area of the composite figure = 2 \pi +2 \pi +2 \pi  + 16 \: \rm cm^2 = 6 \pi+ 16 \: \rm cm^2

For what value of a are the lines of 6y=-2x+4 and 2y=ax-5 parallel? perpendicular?
masha68 [24]

Hey there!!

Parallel lines have the same slope. If they have different slope, then they are not parallel because both lines would combine at some point.

The y-intercept form:

<em>y = mx + b </em>

<u>In this equation, 'm' is considered to be the slope. </u>

The equation we have is 6y = -2x + 4

First, let's divide all the sides with 6 to isolate the value of 'y'.

... 6y = -2x + 4

... y = -1/3x + 2/3

<u><em>The slope is -1/3... </em></u>

<u><em>... hence the slope in the other equation should be -1/3. </em></u>

Equation we got...

... 2y = ax - 5

Let's divide by 2 on both sides...

... y = ax/2 - 5

The slope in this a/2

<u><em>Hence, ... </em></u>

<u><em>... a/2 = -1/3 </em></u>

<u><em>... 3a = -2 </em></u>

<u><em>... a = -2/3 </em></u>

<h2><u><em>Hence, the value of a is -2/3. </em></u></h2><h3><u><em>Hope my answer helps!</em></u></h3>
