So if 1in = 15 mi you just multiply each number by 15 to find the number of miles
55) 30 mi
56) 22.5 mi
57) 7.5 mi
58) 48.75 mi
59) 82.5 mi
60) 108.75 mi
The circumference must be within half the difference of the average of those two numbers:
... |c -28.75| ≤ 0.25 . . . . where c is the circumference in inches
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em>Refer to attached. Point J, segment BJ and angle measures added.</em>
<u>Step 1, find BJ</u>
- BJ / AB = sin 20° ⇒ BJ = AB sin 20° ⇒ BJ = 600 sin 20° ≈ 205.2 ft
<u>Step 2, find BP</u>
- BJ/BP = cos 75° ⇒ BP = BJ / cos 75° ⇒ BP = 205.2/cos 75° ≈ 792.8 ft
<u>Step 3, find PQ</u>
- PQ/BP = sin 35° ⇒ PQ = BP sin 35° ⇒ PQ = 792.8 sin 35° ≈ 454.7 ft
<u>Step 4, find the elevation of peak P</u>
- Height above sea level = 6500 + 454.7 ≈ 6955 ft (rounded)
