Given :

Two vertical buildings 57 meters apart are 158 meters and 237 meters high.

To Find :

The angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building.

Solution :

Distance between height of building, h = 237 - 158 = 79 m.

Distance between these building , d = 57 m.

Now,

tan\ \theta = \dfrac{h}{d}\\\\tan\ \theta = \dfrac{79}{57}\\\\tan\ \theta = 1.386\\\\\theta = tan ^{-1} 1.386\\\\\theta = 54.19^{\circ}

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building is 54.19°.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which mathematical sentence most accurately expresses the information in the problem below? Crystal has 121 compact discs that s
ExtremeBDS [4]

Crystal has 121 compact discs. The total number of boxes required are 5.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Crystal has 121 compact discs that she wants to put into boxes.  

Each of the boxes that she brought home holds 25 discs.  

We have to find how many of these boxes will she need for all of her discs?

Now, we know that, number of boxes required =\frac{\text {total number of discs}}{\text {capacity of one box}}=\frac{121}{25}=4.84=5

Here we took 5 because 0.84 means that box with discs less than 25 still we require a box.  

Hence, the total number of boxes required are 5.
