Given :

Angle of elevation, Ф = 24°.

Distance of Sam from launchpad, D = 5 miles.

To Find :

How high is the rocket.

Solution :

Let, height is h.

We know, tan Ф is given by :

tan \ \phi=\dfrac{h}{d}\\\\tan \ 24^{\circ}=\dfrac{h}{5}\\\\h = 5\times tan \ 24^{\circ}\\\\h = 2.226 \ miles

Hence, this is the required solution.

what property justifies this statement if segment AB is congruent to segment de and segment de is congruent to segment a b
irina [24]

Answer:

If segment AB is congruent to segment DE, then segment DE is congruent to segment AB.

This is the same as if a=b then b=a! which property does that sound like?

Step-by-step explanation:

4. 3x + 4=35, well 3x+4-4=35 -4 -> 3x= 35-

4, which property subtracts from both sides?

8. it's already proven! what else is left but to use it! A property is not something in need of proof, it's the very basic stuff we start off with! A conjuncture is still not proven only thought to be true. That leaves 2.

9. if i give u the answer to this one then you won't get much out of it! so either i give you the answer or you get it yourself, those are the conditions.

10. p --> q, well we know p OR q is not it because OR is a U P AND q is not it because OR is a U

so it must be implies!

But is it p implies q or is it q implies p.

Hmmmm...i wonder.. which way does the arrow point from the st to the 2nd.

12. The statement is P then Q Inverses is not P the Q Inverse is not Q converse is Q the P

Contraceptive is not Q then not P.

13. If and only if, i will give you the answer if and only if you only look it up on the internet.

Did i put one condition on you to do it or two?

Indirect proof is a type of proof in which a statement to be proved is assumed false and if the assumption leads to an impossibility, then the statement assumed false has been proved to be true.

How do how you cross cancel multiplying fractions
DENIUS [597]

It's easy once you spot the ones that can cross cancel!

Say we have the fractions 8/10 and 20/23. \frac{8}{10} \frac{20}{23} (it's easier to see on top of each other)

If you look diagonally , so 8 and 23 and 10 and 20, you can see that 10 and 20 have a common factor. So we divide it by the highest common factor to reduce those numbers, making it easier to multiply. 10 and 20 can become 1 and 2, dividing by 10. So now we are left with 8/1 and 2/23, and now we multiply normally going across so 16/23.

This works going both diagonals and simplifying both, but in that case it would be easier to try and simplify the fractions before cross multiplying them.

Basically: look for those diagonals and if they can be divided down by the highest common factor, go for it to make it easier to multiply normally afterwards.

Hope I helped!
