Answer:

48.49 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagrammatic sketch of the information provided in the question was attached in the image below.

From the image below, the distance between the two kites is denoted by (c) and can be determined by using the cosine angle rule which is expressed as:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab cos \ C

where;

a = 110

b = 104

Cos C = 26°

Then;

c^2 = 110^2 + 104^2 -2(110)(104) cos \ 26 \\ \\  c^2 = 12100 + 10816- 22880 ( 0.8988) \\ \\  c^2 = 22916- 20564.544 \\ \\  c^2 = 2351.456 \\ \\  c= \sqrt{2351.456} \\ \\ \mathbf{ c = 48.49 \ feet}

If two angles are complementary then both angles must be acute true or false
Oxana [17]

Answer:

If two angles are acute angles, then they are complementary. Incorrect. The converse is “If two angles are complementary, then they are acute angles” which is true and the original statement was false because two acute angles are not always complementary.

5x +y=8
makvit [3.9K]
Take away the bottom equation from the top so the y’s cancel out
3x = -24
x therefore = -8
and put x back into the equation to find out y
2(-8) + y= 32
-16 + y =32
y= 48

On a map, the length of a nature trail is 7.2 centimeters. If the scale is 1 centimeter to 25 kilometers, what is the actual len
Lisa [10]
A:b=c:d
7.2:x=1:25. If u see two ratios equal each other, the product of a and d is equal to the product of b and c. This means that (7.2 times 25) is equal to x. This equals 180=x. The actual distance of the trail of 180 km. Hope this helps!
