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 is the area of this triangle?
icang [17]

Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation: The formula for calculating a triangle’s area is 1/2(base•height). This means that 12•3 is 36, which multiplied by 1/2 is 18.

(Hope this helps)

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT !!!
True [87]

Answer: If the corresponding angles of two triangles are not congruent, then the triangles are not congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the corresponding angles of two triangles are not congruent, then the triangles are not congruent.

A contrapositive statement is when you take the original statement, "flip" it around, and write the opposite of the original statement. Here's an example:

<u>Original statement:</u> The grass is wet because it was raining.

<u>Contrapositive statement:</u> It was not raining, so the grass is not wet.

Notice how we "flipped" the original sentence around, as wrote it's "opposite".

Which figure has a greater area?<br>19 ft<br>16.4 ft<br>.<br>15 ft<br>16.1 ft​
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

green triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The green triangle has an area of

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (15) * 19

A =142.5 ft^2

The blue triangle has an area of

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2(16.1) (16.4)

A =132.02 ft^2

The green triangle has a greater area
