Answer:

321.68feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Top of the house above the sea level  = 150feet = opposite

Angle of elevation = 25°

Required

Distance from the boat to the base of the house(adjacent)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tan theta = opp/adj

tan 25 = 150/d

d = 150/tan25

d = 150/0.4663

d = 321.68

Hence the required distance is  321.68feet

Two cyclists start at the same point and travel in opposite directions. One cyclist travels 5 faster than the other. If the two
zzz [600]

The rate of the slower cyclist is 16 mph while the rate of the faster cyclist is 21 mph.

<h3>How to calculate the rate of speed?</h3>

let us assume the following;

x = rate of slower cyclist

x + 5 = rate of faster cyclist

We know that formula for distance is;

distance = travel time*rate

Thus;

2x + 2(x + 5) = 74

Since the two cyclists are a distance of 74 miles apart after a time 2 hours. Thus;

2x + 2x + 10 = 74

4x + 10 = 74

4x = 74 - 10

4x = 64

x = 64/4

x = 16

Rate of faster cyclist = 16 + 5 = 21 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of A is 3.2

The location of A' is 6.4

A represent pre image A' represent the new image.

The scale factor of A to A' is 2 since 3.2 x 2 =6.4

Since you didnt provide B coordinates, just multiply 2 by the B coordinate to find the B prime coordinate.
