Lookin for free points kinda like this one whatcha doin?
Answer:
x = 10.4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply each side by 5 to remove it as a fraction
2. it cancels out on the left leaving 10x - 4 = 100
3. Add 4 to each side canceling it out on the left and leaving 10x = 104
4. Divide each side by 10 to get x by itself
5. 10x/100 = 104/10
6. x = 10.4
Answer: 4.5 miles
Explanation:
When you draw the situation you find two triangles.
1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter
a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°
b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter
c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter
d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x
2) triangle to the west of the helicopter
a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°
b) distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse
c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter
d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x
3) tangent ratios
a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school
tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°
b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school
tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°
c) equal the height from both triangles:
x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°
x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°
x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°
x (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°
⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)
⇒ x = 4,19 miles
=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles
4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:
hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²
hipotenuse = 4.46 miles
Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles
That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.
Answer:
sin p -21/29
cos q 21/29 so here you go °~sohcahtoa~°
Step-by-step explanation:
sin means you find the soh part so you look for the oppisite over hyponuse
and for cos your looking for cah part so you find the adjsent over hypotnuse so the ansers is 21/29
So I think it is Dwat u think it is
