Answer:

46.05degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Height of tree = 18ft (Opposite)

length of shadow = 25ft (hypotenuse)

Required

Angle of elevation

Sin theta = opp/hyp

Sin x = 18/25

sin x = 0.72

x = arcsin(0.72)

x = 46.05

Hence the angle of elevation of the sun is 46.05degrees

What is the correct symbol?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Since 10/9 is greater than 1, multiplying by 10/9 makes the value larger

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Solve the fraction

10/9 = 1.1112

Therefore 10/9 > 1

Step 2: Multiple the fraction by itself

10/9 x 10/9 = 100/81

Convert fraction to decimals

100/81 = 1.2345678901.....

1.234567901 > 1.1112

Therefore 10/9 x 10/9 is bigger than 10/9
