PLS HELP LOL!!! Isabella and Alice are standing some distance apart on the same side of a building 50 meters tall. From where Is

abella stands, the angle of elevation of the top of the building is 30. From where Alice stands, the angle is 60. What is the distance between Isabella and Alice to the nearest tenth of a meter?

Answer:

57.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the distance between Isabella, the building and the angle form a right angled triangle with the height of the building = h = 50 m as the opposite side and x = distance between Isabella and the building = adjacent side and Ф = angle of elevation of the top of the building from Isabella = 30°.

So, from trigonometric ratios,

tanФ = h/x

and x = h/tanФ

= 50 m/tan30°

= 50/0.5774

= 86.6 m

Also, the distance between Alice, the building and the angle form a right angled triangle with the height of the building = h = 50 m as the opposite side and x' = distance between Alice and the building = adjacent side and Ф' = angle of elevation of the top of the building from Alice = 60°.

So, from trigonometric ratios,

tanФ' = h/x'

and x' = h/tanФ'

= 50 m/tan60°

= 50/1.7321

= 28.87 m

So, the distance between Isabella and Alice, x" = x - x'

= 86.6 m - 28.87 m

= 57.73 m

≅ 57.7 m

What value should be added to both sides for completing the square in this equation?
Mila [183]

Hey there!

x^2 + 4x = 12

SUBTRACT 12 to BOTH SIDES

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 12 - 12

SIMPLIFY IT

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

FACTOR the LEFT SIDE of your EQUATION

(x - 2)(x + 6) = 0

• EQUATION #1: x - 2 = 0

OR

• EQUATION #2: x + 6 = 0

SIMPLIFY IT

• EQUATION #1 answer: x = 2

OR

• EQUATION #2 answer: x = -6

OVERALL ANSWER: x = 2 or x = -6

YOUR ANSWER: x = 2 (Option A.)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

A triangle has vertices T(-2,4), E(6,2), and D(1,-1). Is ATED a right triangle?
inessss [21]

Answer:

  • B. Yes, because ED is perpendicular to DT which makes a right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plot the given points and connect in pairs to get a triangle.

Visually we can say it is a right triangle as legs TD and ED seem perpendicular.

Let's confirm this by finding the slopes.

<u>Slope of TD:</u>

  • m = (-1 - 4)/(1 -(-2)) = -5/3

<u>Slope of ED:</u>

  • (-1 - 2)/ (1 - 6) = -3/-5 = 3/5

<u>Product of the slopes is:</u>

  • -5/3*3/5 = -1

This confirms DT⊥ED

Correct choice is B
