Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 miles high is one of the sides of a triangle depending on accuracy level
h^2=x^2+y^2
we don't have 2 distances
Tan A=O/a
O=a tan A
We solve for O because the angle is at the top of the line going up and we want the opposite angle that is along the ground
O=5×tan(173.7/2)=90.854033512
The distance he can see is:
90.85*2~181.7 miles
Now we need to find the distance between lines:
The north south distance between each line is 69 miles
thus the number of degrees he will see will be:
181.7/69
=2 19/30
To find the length of a square given the area, we just need to take the square root of the area given. The sqrt of 36 is 6, so each side is 6 inches. :)
C and D are your correct answers.
I hope this helps
