Answer:

The monument is approximately 86.6 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The given monument parameters are;

The distance of the person from the monument = 50 feet

The angle of depression from the top of the monument to the person's feet = 64°

Given that the angle of elevation to the top of the monument from the person's feet = The angle of depression from the top of the monument to the person's feet, we have;

tan(Angle of depression) = tan(Angle of elevation) = (The height of the monument)/(The distance from the monument)

∴ The height of the monument = tan(Angle of depression) × The distance from the monument

Substituting the known values, gives;

The height of the monument = tan(60°) × 50 ≈ 86.6

The height of the monument ≈ 86.6 feet.

24/r=36/27 what is r? And one more w/0.16 = 6.25 what is w
Eddi Din [679]
24/r= 36/27

Cross multiply:
36*r= 24*27
⇒ r= 24*27/36= 18

r=18~

w/0.16 = 6.25
⇒ w= 6.25*0.16
⇒ w= 1

w=1~

In the diagram, BC is a radius of C. Determine whether AB is tangent to C. Explain your reasoning.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

No, AB is not tangent to C.

If it were tangent, it would form a right angle with the radius, and we could use Pythagorean's Theorem.

3²+6²=7²

9+36=49

45=49  Since this is false, it's not a right angle, and AB is not tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, AB is not tangent to C.

If it were tangent, it would form a right angle with the radius, and we could use Pythagorean's Theorem.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{6}x-1>1\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{5}{6}x-1>\frac{4}{3}\\\\\frac{5}{6}x>\frac{4}{3}+1\\\\\frac{5}{6}x>\frac{4}{3}+\frac{3}{3}\\\\\frac{5}{6}x>\frac{7}{3}\\\\x>\frac{7}{3}*\frac{6}{5}\\\\x>\frac{7*2}{5}\\x>\frac{14}{5}\\\\x>2\frac{4}{5}
