Two Identical Buildings stand parallel on opposite sides of a road. Find the angle of depression from A to B

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleks04 [339]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

8.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

The above problem can be represented by a right angled triangle with height of 7 m, hypotenuse = AB.

The base of the triangle is gotten by finding the diagonal of the road. That is using Pythagoras theorem:

base² = 43² + 15²

base² = 2074

base = 45.54 m

Using trigonometric function to find angle A:

tan(A) = base / height

tan(A) = 45.54 / 7

tan(A) = 6.506

A = tan⁻¹ (6.506)

A = 81.3°

Angle of depression = 90° - A = 90 - 81.3

Angle of depression = = 8.7°

ELEN [110]

Using the Empirical Rule and the Central Limit Theorem, we have that:

  • About 68% of the sample mean fall with in the intervals $1.64 and $1.82.
  • About 99.7% of the sample mean fall with in the intervals $1.46 and $2.

<h3>What does the Empirical Rule state?</h3>

It states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

  • Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
  • Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of  the mean.
  • Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

<h3>What does the Central Limit Theorem state?</h3>

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

In this problem, the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is:

s = \frac{0.657}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.09

68% of the means are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, hence the bounds are:

  • 1.73 - 0.09 = $1.64.
  • 1.73 + 0.09 = $1.82.

99.7% of the means are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, hence the bounds are:

  • 1.73 - 3 x 0.09 = $1.46.
  • 1.73 + 3 x 0.09 = $2.

At what point does the terminal side of the angle 7pi over 4 in standard position intersect the unit circle
maria [59]
The fourth terminal. The unit circle you move around counterclockwise and 8pi over 4 is 2pi, which is also zero. So the quadrant would be just 45 degrees below 2pi and in quadrant 4

I think that it would be C, but I am debating on C and D. I'm pretty confident that it's C, though. Pretty sure.

Olivia invested $2,400 in an account paying an interest rate of 4.6\% compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawa
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

  8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For continuous compounding, the account value formula is ...

  A = Pe^(rt)

where P is the invested amount, r is the annual interest rate, and t is the number of years. We want to find t when ...

  3550 = 2400e^(.046t)

  ln(355/240) = 0.046t

  t = ln(355/240)/0.046 ≈ 8.5

It will take 8.5 years for the value to reach $3550.
