Answer:
17.11 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
You are using trigonometry in this problem.
The height of the flagpole represents the side <u><em>opposite</em></u> the given angle.
The base of the triangle is given as 19 meters and represents the side <u><em>adjacent</em></u> to the given angle.
Out of the main trigonomentric functions (sine, cosine, and tangent), only tangent uses both the opposite and adjacent sides.
Tan(angle) = opposite / adjacent
If we plug in what we know into that equation: <em>tan(42 degrees) = h / 19</em>
This means that <em>your answer = 19 * tan(42) = 17.11</em> meters
Answer:
No, This is not a valid Probability Distribution
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability [Neighbour walks with Beagle] = 20%
Probability [Neighbour walks with Golden Retriever] = 70%
Probability [Neighbour walks alone] = 30%
Disjoint Events are the events that have zero probability of occurring together. If all the three above items are disjoint, it means that it can never happen that two of them happen together.
The total (summed) probability of a valid probability distribution, with disjoint sets = 1 . In given case, total probability = 0.2 + 0.7 + 0.3 = 1.2 ; i.e > 1.
So, this probability distribution with stated disjoint events is not a Valid Probability distribution.
Plane R and plane P intersect at AB.
Planes are when 3 points that are not on the same line can be used to describe a plane. Plane P is horizontal and Plane R is vertical and these 2 planes intersect at line AB. Intersecting is where these 2 planes meet, therefore line AB is common to both planes.
The opposite of the fraction one third would be negative one third. To be opposite, they must have differing signs. One number should be positive and the other number should be negative. It is different from reciprocal. To be a reciprocal, <span>one number should be the flipped fraction, or upside down version, of the other number.</span>
