Answer:
<em>The angle of elevation of the sun is 32°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Right Triangles</u>
The flagpole and the ground form a right angle (90°). In triangles with right angles, the trigonometric ratios are satisfied.
Each acute angle has an adjacent leg and an opposite leg. The tangent ratio relates to both legs.
The opposite leg to angle x is 20 ft and the adjacent leg is 32 ft, thus:
Calculate x by using the inverse tangent:
The angle of elevation of the sun is 32°
First one is a function and the second one is also a function !
Hey there!!
In order to find the slope, let's convert this equation which is in a standard form to a slope-intercept form.
Slope intercept form:
<em>y = mx + b </em>
We have two things to remember:
- 'm' in the equation stands for slope.
- 'b' in the equation resembles y-intercept.
Given:
4x - 5y = -5
The main idea:
- We will have to isolate 'y'
First, let's subtract 4x on both sides:
4x - 5y - 4x = -4x -5
-5y = - 4x - 5
Now let's divide both the sides with -5
-5y/-5 = (-4x/-5) + (-5/-5)
y = (4/5)x + 1
Now, we got the slope intercept form and the coefficient of 'x' would be the slope.
<u><em>Hence, the slope of the line is '4/5' </em></u>
Hope it helps!
