Answer:

75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the shadow to the object would be a 4:5 ratio

since the shadow of the flagpole is 60 ft,

4x=60 so x would =15

then you multiply 15 by 5 and end up with 75

What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (-6, -6)(−6,−6) to (9, -1)(9,−1) that partitions the seg

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the points from which the directed line segment extends = (-6, -6) to (9, -1)

The ratio the required point partitions the line = 2 to 3

The formula for finding the coordinate of a point that partitions a line AB into a ratio 'a' to 'b', where the coordinates of, A = (x₁, y₁) and B = (x₂, y₂) is given as follows;

$\left(\dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (x_1 - x_2)+ x_1, \ \dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (y_1 - y_2)+ y_1 \right)$

Therefore, the required point is located as follows;

$\left(\dfrac{2}{2 + 3} \times (9 - (-6))+ (-6), \ \dfrac{2}{2 + 3}\times (-1 - (-6))+ (-6) \right) = (0, -4)$

The coordinates of the point is (0, -4)

Verify that [tan(theta) + cot(theta)]^2 = sec^2(theta) + csc^2(theta)

Wittaler [7]

(tanθ + cotθ)² = sec²θ + csc²θ

Expand left side: tan²θ + 2tanθcotθ + cot²θ

Evaluate middle term: 2tanθcotθ = $2*\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta}*\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta}$ = 2

⇒ tan²θ + 2+ cot²θ

= tan²θ + 1 + 1 + cot²θ

Apply trig identity: tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ

⇒ sec²θ + 1 + cot²θ

Apply trig identity: 1 + cot²θ = csc²θ

⇒ sec²θ + csc²θ

Left side equals Right side so equation is verified

A container built for transatlantic shipping is constructed in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Its dimensions are 7 ft b

____ [38]

Given:

Dimensions are 7 ft by 5 ft by 8.5 ft

Contents weigh 0.21 pound

Contents worth $8.80 per pound

Find-: value of container contents.

Sol:

Volume is:

$\begin{gathered} Volume\text{ = }7\times5\times8.5 \\ \\ =297.5 \end{gathered}$

The formula of density is:

$\text{ Density =}\frac{\text{ Mass}}{\text{ Volume}}$

So,

$\begin{gathered} 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight of contents in container}}{\text{ Volume of container}} \\ \\ 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight}}{297.5} \\ \\ 0.21\times297.5=\text{ Weight} \\ \\ \text{ Weight of contents in container = }62.475\text{ Pound} \end{gathered}$

Now $8.80 per pound

For 62.475 pounds the value is:

$\begin{gathered} =62.475\times8.80 \\ \\ =549.78 \end{gathered}$

So the value of the container contents is 549.78
