Malaya is standing directly between a 90-foot tall courthouse and a 54-foot tall bank. If the angle of elevation from the point

where Malaya is standing to the top of the courthouse is 72°, while the angle of elevation to the top of the bank is 35°. What is the distance between the courthouse and the bank?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a picture.

c and b are Malaya’s distance from the courthouse and bank, respectively.

tan(72°) = c/90

c = 90tan(72°)

tan(35°) = b/54

b = 54tan(35°)

Distance between courthouse and bank = c+b

= 90tan(72°) + 54tan(35°)

= 301.5 ft

ollegr [7]

Answer:

  40 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume "outbound" refers to the trip <em>to the lake</em>. The ratio of speeds is inversely proportional to the ratio of times, so ...

  outbound speed : inbound speed = 4 : 3

These differ by one ratio unit, so that one ratio unit corresponds to the speed difference of 10 mph. Then the 4 ratio units of outbound speed will correspond to ...

  4×10 mph = 40 mph

Paul's average speed on the outbound trip was 40 mph.

___

The distance to the lake was 120 mi.

Find the area of the following polygon:
Masja [62]

Given:

ABCD is a quadrilateral

AC = 12, DE = 4 and FB = 5

To find:

The area of the polygon.

Solution:

AC bisects the quadrilateral into two triangles.

Area of triangle:

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times\text{base}\times\text{height}

<u>Area of triangle DAC:</u>

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times AC \times DE

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 12 \times 4

A=24

Area of triangle DAC = 24 square units.

<u>Area of triangle BAC:</u>

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times AC \times FB

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 12 \times 5

A=30

Area of triangle BAC = 30 square units.

Area of polygon = Area of triangle DAC + Area of triangle BAC

                           = 24 square units + 30 square units

                           = 54 square units

The area of the polygon is 54 square units.
