Answer:

\theta = 4.8^\circ

It is possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the construction

Solving (a): The minimum angle

This is calculated as thus:

tan(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}

tan(\theta) = \frac{15}{180}

tan(\theta) = 0.0833

Calculate \theta

\theta = tan^{-1}(0.0833)

\theta = 4.761

\theta = 4.8^\circ --- approximated

Solving (b):

First; calculate the height of the building using the following equivalent ratio.

h : 420 = 15 : 180

Where h is the height of the building

\frac{h }{ 420 }= \frac{15 }{ 180}

h= \frac{15 }{ 180}*420

h= \frac{15*420 }{ 180}

h= \frac{6300}{ 180}

h= 35

<em>This means that it is possible that the builder builds a 32 feet high building</em>

Find two consecutive numbers with a product of 121
Crank
One number: x
Its consecutive:  x + 1

Product:

x(x+1)=121
x² + x - 121 = 0

Δ = 1² - 4.1.(-121)
Δ = 1+484
Δ = 485

As square root of 485 is not integer, do not exist two consecutive numbers with product of 121
