A student stands 20 m away from the foot

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Height of tree is $\approx$ 15 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that student is 20 m away from the foot of tree.

and table is 1.5 m above the ground.

The angle of elevation is: 34°28'

Please refer to the attached image. The given situation can be mapped to a right angled triangle as shown in the image.

AB = CP = 20 m

CA = PB = 1.5 m

$\angle C$ = 34°28' = 34.46°

To find TB = ?

we can use trigonometric function tangent to find TP in right angled $\triangle TPC$

$tan \theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\tan C= \dfrac{PT}{PC}\\\Rightarrow tan 34.46^\circ = \dfrac{PT}{20}\\\Rightarrow PT = 20 \times 0.686 \\\Rightarrow PT = 13.72\ m$

Now, adding PB to TP will give us the height of tree, TB

Now, height of tree TB = TP + PB

TB = 13.72 + 1.5 = 15.22 $\approx$ 15 m

3 coffees and 4 donuts cost $10.05. In the same cafeteria, 5 coffees and 7 donuts cost $17.15. How much do you have to pay for 4

MakcuM [25]

Answer

You need to pay $14.20 to get 4 coffees and 6 donuts.

Explanation

Let's say that the price of one coffee and x and the price of one donut is y.

In the first instance, 3x+4y=10.05.

In the second instance, 5x+7y=17.15.

You can use these equations to find the value of a coffee and the value of a donut.

We can find x and y using elimination. To do this, you should add or subtract one equation from another to "get rid" of a variable (I'll "get rid" of x). We can't just add or subtract the equations right now, since that wouldn't lead to 0x.

Multiply the first equation by 5, and the second equation by 3. After this, both equations will have 15x. Make sure to multiply each term by 5 and 3.

15x+20y=50.25. This means that 15 coffees and 20 donuts is $50.25.

15x+21y=51.45. This means that 15 coffees and 21 donuts is 51.45.

Now since there are an equal number of coffees, we can subtract these equations.

(15x+21y=51.45)-(15x+20y=50.25) equals y=1.20 (a donut costs $1.20).

Plug the price of the donut into y to find x; 3x+4(1.20)=10.05. The value of x is 1.75. The price of a coffee is 1.75.

You can multiply 1.75 by 4 to find the price of 4 coffees and 1.20 by 6 to find the price of 6 donuts.

1.75*4 is 7.00 and 1.20*6 is 7.20.

You can add those to find the total price; 7.00+7.20=14.20.

Name a pair of overlapping congruent triangles in each diagram. State whether the triangles are congruent by SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS,

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

ΔPTS≅ΔRTA by AAS axiom of congruency

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider ΔPQA and ΔRQS

∠PQA=∠RQS (Vertically Opposite Angles)

∠QAP=∠QSR (Complementary of two equal angles, ∠RAT and∠PST)

Due to angle sum property of a triangle, we come to the conclusion that

∠APQ=∠SRQ

Consider ΔPTS and ΔRTA

TA=TS (Given)

∠RAT=∠PST(Given)

∠APQ=∠SRQ (Proved above)

Therefore, ΔPTS≅ΔRTA by AAS axiom of congruency.
