The distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem because the length of one leg of the triangle will always be the difference of the x-coordinates, and the length of the other leg will always be the difference in the y-coordinates

What is the hight of a Building 1 Angle 71o Distance 20 meters

vlabodo [156]

The height of a building is 58.08 meters if the angle is 71 degree and the distance between A and B is 20 meters.

<h3>What is trigonometry?</h3>

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

We have:

Angle = 71 degree

Distance between A and B = 20 meters

Let's suppose the height of the building is x meters.

From the right angle triangle applying the tan ratio:

tan71 = x/20

x = 58.08 meter

Thus, the height of a building is 58.08 meters if the angle is 71 degree and the distance between A and B is 20 meters.

A farmer has chickens and cows. You ask the farmer how many chickens he has, and how many cows he has. The farmer has 28 healthy

crimeas [40]

Set the number of chickens as x and number of cows as y
so the farmer has total 28 animals
so x+y=28
you know that since the animals are healthy
chickens will have 2 legs and
cows will have 4 legs
the total number of legs are 64
so 2x+4y=64
since you want to find the number of cows
so from the first equation x+y=28
we will get another equation x=28-y
then plug into 2x+4y=64
2(28-y)+4y=64
56-2y+4y=64
56+2y=64
-56 -56
2y=8
y=4
