Answer:

Value of θ [Angle of elevation] = 72.54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Length of foot ladder = 20 feet

Distance of foot from house (Base) = 6 feet

Find:

Angle of elevation

Computation:

Using trigonometry functions

Cos θ = Base / Hypotenuse

Cos θ = Distance of foot from house (Base) / Length of foot ladder

Cos θ = 6 / 20

Cos θ = 0.3

Cos θ = Cos 72.54

Value of θ [Angle of elevation] = 72.54°

How can transformations be used to solve real world problems?
Zigmanuir [339]
Transformations, im assuming, you mean the ones with graphs on which you move things (ie, x+3; y-10)

imagine setting the table, and you need to add an extra chair for a guest, what do you do?

you transform the x and y of the stuff on one side of the table over, to make room for a new chair and set of tableware. though i dont know if thats a good example

18. what is the midpoint of PQ P(-2, 2.5), Q(1.4, 4)​
scoray [572]

Mid point of the points PQ is (₋0.3 , 3.25)

Given points are:

P(₋2 , 2.5)

Q(1.4 , 4)

midpoint of PQ = ?

A location in the middle of a line connecting two points is referred to as the midpoint. The midpoint of a line is located between the two reference points, which are its endpoints. The line that connects these two places is split in half equally at the halfway.

The midpoint calculation is the same as averaging two numbers. As a result, by adding any two integers together and dividing by two, you may find the midpoint between them.

Midpoint formula (x,y) = (x₁ ₊ x₂/2 , y₁ ₊ y₂/2)

we have two points:

P(₋2,2.5) = (x₁,y₁)

Q(1.4,4) = (x₂,y₂)

Midpoint = (₋2 ₊ 1.4/2 , 2.5₊4/2)

= (₋0.6/2 , 6.5/2)

= (₋0.3 , 3.25)

Hence we determined the midpoint of PQ as (₋0.3 , 3.25)
