(10)sin(40°)=AC is the correct answer
Answer:
I believe the answer is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
48.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
If a 15' ladder is leaned up against a building so that the bottom of the ladder is 10' from the base of the building, what angle does the ladder make with the ground
Let the angle the ladder makes with the ground be represented by x
We solve the above question using the Trigonometric function of Cosine
cos x = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
Adjacent = 10 inches
Hypotenuse = 15 inches
Hence,
cos x = 10/15
x = arc cos (10/15)
x = 48.189685104°
Approximately = 48.2°
Therefore, the angle the ladder makes with the ground is 48.2°
Answer:
I guess...
Step-by-step explanation:
Since QR and PN are parallels, I think what happens in MN and MP is proportional, so:
RN = x
8 is to 10 as
5 is to x
8 * x = 5 * 10
8x = 50
x = 50 / 8
x = 6.25
RN = 6.25
