It forms a right triangle.

To find X you can use the Pythagorean theorem which would be written as x^2 = a^2 + b^2

This can be rewritten as x = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

Using the dimensions of the tree the answer would be :

B. x = sqrt(8^2 + 13^2)

*Will give brainliest* A ladder, leaning against a wall, makes an angle of 20° with the ground. The foot of the ladder is 3 m fr
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The answer is 3.64m

This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 30= 3/h. You divide cos 30 by 3 and you get the answer of 3.64m rounding to 2 decimal places.

Answer:

y = x^2/ 60 + 15

=>( x - h)^2 = 4a[ (x^2/6 + 15) - k ].

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, in order to solve this question very well, one thing we must keep at the back of our mind is that the representation for the equation of a parabola is given as ; y = ax^2 + bx + c.

That is to say; y = ax^2 + bx + c is the equation for a parabola. So, we should be expecting our answer to be in this form.

So, from the question above we are given that "the satellite dish will be in the shape of a parabola and will be positioned above the ground such that its focus is 30 ft above the ground"

We will make an assumption that the point on the ground is (0,0) and the focus is (0,30). Thus, the vertex (h,k) = (0,15).

The equation that best describes the equation of the satellite is given as;

(x - h)^2 = 4a( y - k). ------------------------(1).

[Note that if (h,k) = (0,15), then, a = 15].

Hence, (x - 0)^2 = (4 × 15) (y - 15).

x^2 = 60(y - 15).

x^2 = 60y - 900.

60y = x^2 + 900.

y = x^2/ 60 + 15.

Hence, we will have;

(x - h)^2 = 4a[ (x^2/6 + 15) - k ].

Answer:

\sec x + c

Step-by-step explanation:

\int \frac{ \sin \: x}{ { \cos}^{2}x }  \: dx \\  \\  =  \int \frac{ \sin \: x}{ { \cos}x } . \frac{ 1}{ { \cos}x } \: dx \\  \\  =  \int  \tan x . \sec  x \: dx \\  \\  =  \sec x + c

Dave builds sheds. The widths of the doorways for the sheds vary with the area of the shed. One of Dave's sheds has an area of 2
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The widths of the shed doorways follow the pattern of multiplying by two. For example, 2 x 2 = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

24 x 2 = 48

2 x 2 = 4

The sheds double in width and area.
