Urgent help needed with right triangle trig!

1 answer:

3 0

So we can make this a triangle: the angle is 40° and the bottom side is 360. Therefore, we want to find the side opposite to the angle, where we use tangent, which is opposite (what we are trying to find)/ adjacent (which is 360 ft).

tan(40°)=x/360

x=360tan(40°) ≈ 302.07. Therefore, the answer is about 302 ft

P(x, y) Q(x,y)
P(-2, -1) start at 0. Go to the left two squares, then go down 1 square. mark a point there
Q(2, 4) start at 0. Go to the right two squares, go up 4 squares. mark a point there.
connect two points
make a right triangle
Then use the pythereom
$4^{2} + 5^{2} = (PQ)^{2}$
$41 = (PQ)^{2}$
$\sqrt{41} = PQ$
