Answer:
The slope of graph is
Option C is correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the slope (rate of change) of the graph
The formula to calculate slope is:
Taking two points from the graph: (You can take any two points from the graph)
Point 1 (-4,-3)
Point 2 (-2,0)
We have:
Putting values in the formula and finding slope
So, the slope of graph is
Option C is correct option.
Answer:
69.01 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
The tangent function is useful for problems like this. Let the height of the spire be represented by h. The distance (d) across the plaza from the first surveyor satisfies the relation ...
tan(50°) = (h -1.65)/d
Rearranging to solve for d, we have ...
d = (h -1.65)/tan(50°)
The distance across the plaza from the second surveyor satisfies the relation ...
tan(30°) = (101.65 -h)/d
Rearranging this, we have ...
d = (101.65 -h)/tan(30°)
Equating these expressions for d, we can solve for h.
(h -1.65)/tan(50°) = (101.65 -h)/tan(30°)
h(1/tan(50°) +1/tan(30°)) = 101.65/tan(30°) +1.65/tan(50°)
We can divide by the coefficient of h and simplify to get ...
h = (101.65·tan(50°) +1.65·tan(30°))/(tan(30°) +tan(50°))
h ≈ 69.0148 ≈ 69.01 . . . . meters
The tip of the spire is 69.01 m above the plaza.
