Answer:

30.17feet high

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

the distance from the base of the pole to the tip of the shadow = 49feet (hypotenuse)

angle of elevation = 38°

Required

Height of the flagpole (opposite)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 38 = H/49

H = 49sin38

H = 49(0.6157)

H = 30.17feet

Hence the flagpole is 30.17feet high

If g(x) = 4 square root of x then g(45) is
AlladinOne [14]
Hi,

So we have g(x) = 4√(x).  We're looking for g(45).  Think of it like this: whatever number is in the place of x in g(x), just place that number AS x.

Therefore, we have :
g(45) = 4√(45) ⇒ (4) × (√(45)) ⇒ (4)(3√(5)) = 12√(5).

-Hope this helps!

Describe the transformation in the figure below
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

A) Reflection.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure shown, we can see that the blue triangle is flipped about the x-axis to form the red triangle.

When an object is flipped about a line, then this transformation is called reflection about that line.

Thus, we can say that reflection is taking place in the figure shown in which the x-axis is acting like a mirror. The blue triangle is the pre-image and the red triangle is the image after reflection.

The reflection about x-axis is given by:

Pre-image(x,y)\rightarrow Image(x,-y)

We can check the co-ordinates of the triangles and confirm the the transformation occurring

Points of pre-image triangle:

(0,2),(4,5),(6,2)

Points of image triangle

(0,-2),(4,-5),(6,-2)

Thus, the transformation is reflection.
