Answer:
a. 80.83 ft b. 40.42 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = height of pole = 70 ft, L = length of cable and x = distance of cable on ground to pole and Ф = angle between cable and ground.
a) How long is the cable?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and L being the hypotenuse side, by trigonometric ratios,
sinФ = h/L
L = h/sinФ
L = 70 ft/sin60°
L = 70 ft/0.8660
L = 80.83 ft
b) How far from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and x being the adjacent side, by trigonometric ratios,
tanФ = h/x
x = h/tanФ
x = 70 ft/tan60°
x = 70 ft/1.7321
x = 40.42 ft
Answer: Surface area = 29.32 inches²
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area is the sum of areas of the faces. There are two triangular faces and three rectangular faces.
The formula for determining the area of a triangle is expressed as
Area = 1/2 × base × height
Base = 2 inches
Height = 2 inches
Area = 1/2 × 2 × 2 = 2 inches²
Area of the 2 triangular faces
= 2 × 2 = 4 inches²
The area of the two equal rectangles is
Area = 2 × 2 × 4 = 16 inches²
To determine the width, w of the rectangular base, we would apply Pythagoras theorem.
Hypotenuse ² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
w² = 2² + 2²
w² = 4 + 4 = 8
w = √8 = 2.83
Area of the rectangular base is
2.83 × 4 = 11.32 inches²
Surface area = 4 + 16 + 11.32 = 31.32 inches²
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given I varies inversely with R then the equation relating them is
I = 
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition R = 12 when I = 3
k = IR = 3 × 12 = 36
I = 
← equation of variation
When I = 6, then
6 = , hence
R = 
= 6
Answer: Angle A= 135 degrees and Angle B= 45 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary means two angles added together to make 180.
Angle A= 3x and Angle B= x
So 3x +x =180
4x=180 divide both sides by 4
x =45
So Angle A = 3 times 45 =135 degrees
Angle B= the value of x which is 45 degrees
Answer:
the third option. x is a real number
