Answer: 113.0 ft (bottom right corner)
=====================================
Explanation:
The triangle has a horizontal leg of 220 ft and a vertical leg of x ft. We'll use the tangent rule to connect the opposite side and adjacent side
opposite side = x
adjacent side = 220
this is with the reference angle shown in the diagram
So,
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(26) = x/220
220*tan(26) = x
x = 220*tan(26)
x = 107.301169 ... see note below
x = 107.3
Now that we know the approximate value of x, we add on 5.7 to get
x+5.7 = 107.3+5.7 = 113.0
note: make sure your calculator is in degree mode. The value is approximate to 6 decimal places
To solve this we would do 30×365
We would do this because each day the dog 30lbs
So we have the equation y=30x
Where y= total amount of dog food
And x= number of days
In a year there are 365 days typically, so we do 30×365
30×365=10,950
In one year 10,950 lbs of dog food are used
Using the triangle, we can find the angle lengths and using those and trig ratios, find the side lengths. Lets say the top side length is "y".
Using the Law of triangles, we can find the missing angle from 180-90-70=20 deg.
Then we can use the Law of sines,
sin(70)/13=sin(20)/y
y=sin(20)*13/sin(70)
y=15.34
Finally, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, (13)^2+(15.34)^2=x^2
x = 20.1
It is 9 weeks. 8 times 12 is only 96$
