A cell phone tower is anchored by two cables on each side for support. The cables stretch from the top of the tower to the groun

d, with each being equidistant from the base of the tower. The angle of depression from the top of the tower to the point in which the cable reaches the ground is 23 degrees. If the tower is 140 feet tall, find the ground distance between the cables. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

659.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 140 / tan 23  

x = 329.82(rounded to hundredth)

so total ground distance between the cables = 2x = 2(329.82) = 659.64 feet

Which statement accurately describes how to perform a 90° counterclockwise rotation of point A (−1, −2) around the origin? Creat
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

last one

Step-by-step explanation:

You are swinging A(-1,-2) around the center which in this case is the origin. Keep in mind that points on a circle all have a equal distance from the origin.  We don't want the distance from the center to change.

We want the center of that circle to be the origin.

So the answer is the last one:

"Create a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 90° counterclockwise from point A. ​"

A cylindrical swimming pool has a diameter of 20 feet and a height of 3.5 feet. How many gallons of water can the pool contain?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The swimming pool will contain approx 8243\ gal of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the swimming pool is in a cylindrical shape.

And the dimensions are 20\ feet diameter with a height of 3.5\ feet.

Also, 1\ ft^3 =7.5\ gal

First, we will find the volume of the swimming pool.

The swimming pool is in cylindrical shape.

So, the volume would be \pi r^2h

The height (h) is given as 3.5\ feet. To calculate radius (r) we will divide the diameter by two.

The radius of the cylinder would be \frac{20}{2}=10\ feet

Plug these values in the formula we get,

\pi r^2h\\=\pi\times 10^2\times 3.5\\=3.14\times 100\times 3.5\\=1099\ ft^3

Now, it is given 1\ ft^3 =7.5\ gal

So, 1099\ ft^3 =1099\times 7.5\ gal=8242.5\ gal

The swimming pool will contain approx 8243\ gal of water.
