\bf sin^{-1}(some\ value)=\theta \impliedby \textit{this simply means}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta )=some\ value\qquad \textit{now, also bear in mind that}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\qquad 
\qquad 
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf sin^{-1}\left( \frac{2}{5} \right)=\theta \impliedby \textit{this simply means that}
\\\\\\
sin(\theta )=\cfrac{2}{5}\cfrac{\leftarrow opposite}{\leftarrow hypotenuse}\qquad \textit{now let's find the adjacent side}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}

\bf \pm \sqrt{5^2-2^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{21}=a
\\\\\\
\textit{we don't know if it's +/-, so we'll assume is the + one}\quad \sqrt{21}=a\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\qquad \qquad tan(\theta)=\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{21}}
\\\\\\
\textit{and now, let's rationalize the denominator}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{21}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{21}}{(\sqrt{21})^2}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{21}}{21}

an ice sculture measures 52 inches and melts continuously by 3% per minute. find the height of a sculpture after 15 minutes
daser333 [38]

Answer:

28.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

3 percent of 52 is 1.56 so it is melting at a rate of 1.56 inches per minute

15x1.56 is 23.4

52-23.4=28.6 so after 15 minutes the sculpture will be only 28.6 inches tall
