24+24+15+15= the perimeter, aka 48+30 aka 78 meters
The highest amount it could be is 2,499 + 899= 3,898 which could be rounded to 3,900
The reciprocal cosine function is secant: sec(theta)=1/cos(theta). The reciprocal sine function is cosecant, csc(theta)=1/sin(theta). The reciprocal tan function is cotan
Cotx=1\tanx
Jackson's method to figure out the height of the mountain is from the
similar triangles formed by the light using the mirror.
Response:
- The height of the mountain is <u>50 feet 8 inches</u>
<h3>Which methods can used to find the height of the mountain?</h3>
The given parameters are;
Distance of the mirror from Jackson = 5 feet
Distance of the mirror from the base of the mountain = 40 feet
Height of Jackson = 6'4'' tall
Required:
The approximate height of the mountain, <em>h</em>
Solution:
The triangles formed by the light from the top of the mountain which is
reflected to Jackson from the mirror, Jackson's height, the height of the
mountain, and their distances from the mirror, are similar triangles.
The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal, therefore,
we have;

Which gives;


- The height of the mountain is approximately <u>50 feet 8 inches</u>
