Answer:

85.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The extreme water slide forms a 20 angle with the tower it leans against 80 feet above the ground find the length of the slide x

We solve using the Trigonometric function of Cosine

cos y = adjacent/hypotenuse

y = angle = 20°

Adjacent = 80 ft

Hypotenuse = ?

cos 20 = 80/Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 80/cos 20

x = 85.134221798 ft

Approximately = 85.1 ft

Length of the slide = 85.1 ft

Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is -2y=3x+7
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Any line with the slope of 2/3 would be perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, first solve the equation for y.

-2y = 3x + 7

y = -3/2x - 7/2

Perpendicular lines always have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, we flip the slope in the original equation (-3/2 becomes -2/3) and then we change the sign (-2/3 becomes 2/3)
