Answer:

25.61 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can draw a picture (see attached picture). With the wall representing the rightmost line, and the ground representing the bottom line, the ladder (the hypotenuse) forms a 80 degree angle with the ground and the wall and ground form a 90 degree angle.

Without solving for other angles, we know one angle and the hypotenuse, and want to find the opposite side of the angle.

One formula that encompasses this is sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse, with x being 80 degrees and the hypotenuse being 26 feet. We thus have

sin(80°) = opposite / 26 feet

multiply both sides by 26 feet

sin(80°) * 26 feet = opposite

= 25.61 feet as the height of the wall the ladder reaches

Can someone explain to me how to do this and give me the answer please?​
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

To find x, y, z, p and q, you need to know about the property of Rhombus.

13y + 10 = 7y + 16 (pair of equal opposite sides)

=> 6y = 6

=> y = 1

x = 7x + 16 (2 equal adjacent sides)

  = 7*1 + 16

  =23

z = 90 deg (angle between 2 diagonals)

q = 22 deg (isosceles triangle)

p = 90 - 22 = 68 deg (right triangle)

Three U.S coins add to $1 If one of them is not half a dollar what is the smallest value coin?
Svet_ta [14]
The smallest value is $0.25 (a quarter) because you can use two quarters and a half dollar. Only one of them can't be a half dollar, but the other two can be.
