Answer:
11.820 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 52° as the base angle. The side opposite is the height up the building where the top of the ladder rests. So, you have the relation ...
sin(52°) = height/(15 ft)
Multiplying by the denominator gives you ...
height = (15 ft)·sin(52°) ≈ 11.820 ft
___
You may need to round this number appropriately.
N = d - 5
2n/(d + 16) = n/d - 1/3 n/d
2n/(d + 16) = 2/3 n/d Divide by 2n
1 / (d + 16) = 1/3 d
Here's the tricky part.
d + 16 = 3d the two denominators are equal. the numerators are both 1.
16 = 2d
d = 8
so the numerator is d - 5
n = 8 - 5
n = 3
Let's see if it checks out.
n = 3
d = 8
2*3 = 6
8 + 16 = 24
New fraction 6/24 = 1/4
(3/8 - 1/3 ) = 1/8
3/8 - 1/8 = 1/4 so it checks with the original conditions put on it.
