Answer:
2/4 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2/4 or 1/2 is the greater fraction.
Sin ø = opposite/hypotenuse = 2/3, cos ø = adjacent/hypotenuse = ?/3, tan ø = opposite/adjacent = 2/?, sec ø = 1/cos ø
to solve ?, Pythagorean theorem must be applied
hypotenuse^2 = adjacent^2 + opposite^2
Manipulating the equation to find the adjacent value = ?
adjacent = sqrt(hypotenuse^2 - opposite^2) = sqrt(9-4)
adjacent = sqrt(5)
so cos ø = sqrt(5)/3, tan ø = 2/sqrt(5) and sec <span>ø = 3/sqrt(5) since the value is positive the possible equivalent trigonometric function should be positive, the answer should be b </span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we need to be familiar with the formula for the surface area of a cone:

We are given the length of a side and the diameter, to calculate the radius divide the diameter in half:

To calculate the height of the cone, we must use the Pythagorean Theorem:

We can treat the side length as the hypotenuse
, the radius as the base
, and solve for height
. Set the expression up like this:

Now we can plug into our original formula:

Answer:
C. 20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The question has given you tan∅ = 20/50. You know that tan is opposite over adjacent. So if the opposite end is 20, that means the tree is 20 feet tall and the girl is <em>50 feet away</em>.
