A bird (B) is spotted flying 900 feet from an observer. The observer (O) also spots the top of a tower (T) at a height of 200 fe

et. What is the angle of depression from the bird (B) to the observer (O)?
Right triangle OTB is shown. Side OT is labeled 200 and side BO is labeled 900. The angle B is labeled x degrees.

12.52°
12.84°

Answer:

X = 12.84°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the measure of the angle labeled x

To do this, we use the appropriate trigonometric identity

From the diagram, we have it that the side 200 which the angle x faces is the opposite, the other side of 900 is the hypotenuse which is the longest side and the side that faces the right angle

The trigonometric identity that relates opposite to the hypotenuse is the sine

Thus;

sin x = 200/900

sin x = 2/9

sin x = 0.222

x = arc•sin (0.222)

x = 12.84 degrees

PLZ HELP ME PLZ I don't understand this
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

For this equation we have to plug in, so z= 6 and w=7. the question is 8z+7w

so plug in 6 for z and 7 for w. 8(6)+7(7) so 8*6 is 48 and 7*7= 49. 48+49= 97

hope this helps :)

Randall has an account balance of $675.54 in a savings account that earns interest at a rate of 2.5% compounded twice a year. If
Alex_Xolod [135]
To calculate amount accrued after a given period of time we use the compound interest formula: A= P(1+r/100)∧n where A i the amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest and n is the interest period.
In the first part; A= $ 675.54, r= 1.25% (compounded semi-annually) and n =22 ( 11 years ),  hence, 675.54 = P( 1.0125)∧22
   = 675.54= 1.314P
 P= $ 514.109 , therefore the principal amount was $ 514 (to nearest dollar)
Part 2
principal amount (p)= $ 541, rate (r) = 1.2 % (compounded twice a year thus rate for one half will be 2.4/2) and the interest period (n)= 34 (17 years×2)
Amount= 541 (1.012)∧34
             = 541 ×1.5
             = $ 811.5
Therefore, the account balance after $ 811.5.
