3.906m

Step-by-step explanation:

from the topic angle of elevation and depression

putting down the above question diagrammatically

we have a triangle

The angle of elevation pad looking up = 38°

using the tangent rule TOA

TAN∅= OPPOSITE/ADJACENT

we have

tan 38° = x/5

x= tan 38° × 5

x= 0.781 * 5

x = 3.906m

Abdul, while driving to school, computes the average speed for his trip to be 20 km/hr. On his return trip along the same route,
gulaghasi [49]
You need to find the total distance and the total time. The total distance is two times the distance to school, 2d.s=d/t=>t=d/sWhere s is speed, d is distance and t is time. So the time taken to get to school is:d/s1and the time taken to get back is:d/s2so the total time is:d/s1+d/s2=d(1/s1+1/s2)So, as speed = distance/time, divide the total distance by the total time:2d/d(1/s1+1/s2)=2/(1/s1+1/s2)=2/(1/20+1/40)=80/3≈26.7km/hr

The length of a rectangle is 8 cm greater than its width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle if its area is 105 square centime
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

105 = (w+8) *w

w = 7 cm

l = 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is

A = l*w

l = w+8

105 = (w+8) *w

Distribute

105 = w^2 +8w

Subtract 105 from each side

105-105 = w^2 +8w -105

0 =w^2 +8w -105

Factor

What 2 number multiply to 105 and add to 8

15*-7 = -105

15-7 = 8

(w+15) (w-7) =0

Using the zero product property

w+15 =0               w-7 =0

w=-15                      w=7

impossible

not negative

w =7

l = 15
