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

Describe a method you can use to find the area of the following shape. Provide specific details in your answer, including coordi
Advocard [28]

There are a number of ways this can be done. One that is fairly simple is as follows.

Triangle ABC has base AC = 9 and height B to AC of 3 (found by counting squares). Thus its area is ∆ABC = (1/2)·9·3 = 13.5 square units.

Triangle ACF has base AC = 9 and height F to AC of 3, so will have the same area as triangle ABC, 13.5 square units.

Trapezoid CDEF has base CD of 6, base EF of 4 and height EF to CD of 6 (found by counting squares). Thus its area is CDEF = (1/2)(6 + 4)(6) = 30.

The total area of the entire figure is then

... ∆ABC + ∆ACF + CDEF = 13.5 + 13.5 + 30 = 57 square units.
