A flagpole is propped on the east side corner of the roof of a building. The angle of depression from the top of the flagpole (A

ngle B) to a point on a neighboring building is 54 degrees. The angle of depression from the bottom of the flagpole (Angle A) to that same point on the building is 41 degrees. The distance from the edge of the building with the flagpole to the point on the neighboring building is 1660 feet (x). What is the height of the flagpole to the nearest tenth

Answer:

The height of flag pole is 841.8 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the flag post is h.

x = 1660 ft

According to the triangle, ABC

tan 41 = \frac{y}{1660}\\\\y = 1443 ft

Now According to the triangle ABD

tan 54 = \frac{h + y }{1660}\\\\h + 1443 = 2284.8\\\\h = 841.8 ft

If p stays constant and u is doubled what happens to e? given U=EP
Stolb23 [73]

We are given the expression:

U = E * P

 

The equality symbol “ = “ means that for all cases, the value of U and E * P must always be equal. This means that whatever happens on the left side, must equally happen on the right side.

 

So what this actually means is that, if we double U so we must also double the expression E * P, that is:

2 U = 2 (E * P)

 

However since P stays constant in the process, therefore only E is changed, hence:

2 U = P * 2 E

 

So we can see that E is also doubled.

Need help please with negative numbers
mart [117]

What I like to do with negative numbers is count back from the positive to the negative here I can make a number line! :) think of it this way 0 is the middle of your positive and negative numbers it’s where they are coming together!

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

————————————

Here #5 (on your paper)
