Answer:

Option C. 44 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

A-----> the angle of the elevation of the sun

we know that

The tangent of angle A is equal to divide the opposite side angle A by the adjacent side angle A

In this problem

The opposite side is 30 meters

The adjacent side is 31 meters

tan(A)=\frac{30}{31}

A=arctan(\frac{30}{31})=44\°

Which answer is a solution of the equation?
Nuetrik [128]

2x + y = 5

Put the coordinates of the points to the equation and check it:

A. 5 - not make sense

B. (1, 2) - x = 1, y = 2

2(1) + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4 ≠ 5  NOT

C. (2, -1) - x = 2, y = -1

2(2) + (-1) = 4 - 1 = 2 ≠ 5    NOT

D. (3, -1) - x = 3, y = -1

2(3) + (-1) = 6 - 1 = 5    YES

<h3>Answer: D. (3, -1).</h3>

Find the radian measure of an angle of 110 degrees
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

0.611 rad

Step-by-step explanation:

For the radian measure:

180° = π radians

180° : 110° = 11 / 18 ≈ 0.611

110° =  11π/18 rad ≈ 0.611 rad
