Complete question is;

A 21 ft ladder is leaning against a tall wall with the foot of the ladder placed at 7 feet from the base of the wall and the angle of elevation is?

Answer:

θ = 70.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation simply means the angle that the ladder makes with the ground. Let's call this angle θ.

I've attached a diagram showing the triangle made by this ladder and the wall.

From the attached diagram, we can see the triangle formed by the ladder and the wall.

We can find the angle of elevation θ from trigonometric ratios.

Thus;

7/21 = cos θ

cos θ = 0.3333

θ = cos^(-1) 0.3333

θ = 70.5°

Zinaida [17]
They both get their cars washed on every 60th day.


You can solve this equation by finding the lcm (least common multiple):

15 30 45 60 75 90 105

20 40 60 80 100

The lowest common multiple is 60 as it is the first multiple the two have in common.

So, in sixty days, they’ll both get their car washed again

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezium is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) with one pair of parallel sides. A trapezium is said to be isosceles if the bases are parallel, the two other sides known as the legs are equal and diagonals of the trapezium are equal to each other.

In trapezoid ABCD, BC and AD are the diagonals.

Hence BC = AD (property of isosceles trapezoid)

9x + 1 = 12x - 11

Simplifying:

12x - 9x = 1 + 11

3x = 12

Dividing both sides by 2:

x = 4
