Answer:

d= 36.016m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given angle B, the adjacent side, and we need the opposite side, we can use Tan to find d using angle B and the adjacent side.

Tan(42)=d/40

We multiply both sides with 40:

(40)Tan(42)=d

Use a calculator to find the final solution:

40(0.9004)=d

36.016=d

Note: 0.9004 is the solution to tan(42)

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

235or 236

Step-by-step explanation:

A cone has a radius of 5 cm

a height of 9 cm

Volume of cone =1/3πr^2h

=1/3×3.14×5×5×9

= 3.14×25×3

=3.14×75

=235.5

If the length of the minute hand of the clock in London commonly known as “Big Ben” is 11.25’ from the center of the clock to th
rodikova [14]
First, we should figure out the area of the entire face of the clock because we need that information to solve the problem. The formula for the area of a circle is A=pi*r^2. Since we know that r (radius) is equal to 11.25 feet, we can plug this in for r and solve for A: A=pi*11.25^2 which equals A=397.61 ft^2 rounded to the nearest hundredth. 

Now, to find the area the hand sweeps over in 5 minutes, we should determine how much of the clock the hand sweeps over in 5 minutes. Think about it like this: since 5 minutes goes into 60 minutes 12 times (60/5=12), then 5 minutes is one twelfth of the clock's face. Therefore, we are going to divide the total area by 12 (397.61/12) to get 33.13 ft^2, so the answer is C.

I hope this helps.
