1.2 miles = 6,336 feet
IF the length is measured along the ground then:
tan (angle) = opp / adjacent
tan (angle) = 3,200 / 6,336
<span>tan (angle) = 0.505050505</span>
angle = 26.796 Degrees
IF the length is measured from the ground to the top then:
sin (angle) = opp / hypotenuse
<span>sin (angle) = 0.505050505</span>
angle = 30.335 Degrees
Note the coordinates of each point: R(-4, 5), S(5, 1), T(2, -3).
The centroid is the point whose coordinates are the average of the coordinates of R, S, and T.
<em>x</em>-coordinate: (-4 + 5 + 2)/3 = 3/3 = 1
<em>y</em>-coordinate: (5 + 1 - 3)/3 = 3/3 = 1
So the centroid is (1, 1).
Length times width (48) 48 convert to sq meters is around 4.45935
