Option B. 2 because 2-8

X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B
I would round them so it would be 500 divided by 20
The answer should be close to 25
I'd say the 3rd one. I haven't done this stuff in 2 years ... me forgot. But if it's not right, then the 1st one!
I want you to know you're smart and you can do this! Good luck!
Answer:
$29.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the cost of the turkey by 12 to obtain the unit cost then multiply this by 13
cost = 
× 13 = $29.25
