Answer: The height of the telephone pole = $15.046

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Angle of elevation= 62 degrees.

Distance of Ben from the base of the pole = 8 feet

According to trigonometry, we have

\tan x=\dfrac{\text{side opposite to x}}{\text{side adjacent to x}}

i.e.

\tan 62^{\circ}=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\(1.880726)=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\\text{ Height of the telephone pole} = 8\times 1.880726\approx15.046

Hence, The height of the telephone pole = $15.046

Given lines p and q are parallel, find the value of x that makes each diagram true.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer: for a the answer is 140° and for b x=25°

Step-by-step explanation:

for a, when you have 2 parallel lines cut by a transversal,the corresponding angles are congruent. and the angle140 is congruent to the corresponding angle as they are vertical angles are congruent.

for b, angle x is congruent to the angle that is supplementary to 155 therefore 180-155=25°

What is the approximate length of RP? Round to the nearest tenth. 5. 6 units 6. 1 units 8. 3 units 9. 8 units.
kirza4 [7]

The apporoximate length of the RP is 6.1 units, the correct option is B.

<h3>What is Pythagoras theorem?</h3>

The Pythagoras theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the lengths of the other two sides of the right-angled triangle.

Given

QR is the tangent to circle P at point Q.

QP = 3 units and QR = 5,.3 units

The length of the RP is given by;

\rm RP=\sqrt{QP^2+QR^2} \\\\RP=\sqrt{3^2+5.3^2}\\\\ RP=\sqrt{9+28.09} \\\\RP=\sqrt{37.09}\\\\RP= 6.1 \ units

Hence, the apporoximate length of the RP is 6.1 units.
