Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is not the best, but I'll try my best here

Since BC is parallel to BE (BC is part of BE) and BA is part of BD, two sides are  parallel, making two angles congruent and the triangles therefore similar.

Since BA correlates to BD (they are parallel), we can use the knowledge that BA is 7 and BD is 42 to find the scaling factor to be 42/7 =6 from ABC to DBE. Since BC correlates to BE, BC = 10, and the scaling factor is 6, BC*6=BE= 60 = height

Anyone please help me with this question.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The answer is 207 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation: You can find this answer by taking 332 and converting it to a fraction and then multiplying it by 5/8. That would look like this 332/1 X 5/8 = x. Then you multiply then numerators, then denominators and simplify the fraction. Next you can divide the numerator by the denominator. And once you have this you round to the nearest whole number.

Hope this helps.

What is the value of the expression?
victus00 [196]
To solve this we are going to use the unitary circle and the fact that tan \alpha = \frac{sin \alpha  }{cos \alpha }

From our circle we can infer that sin\frac{5 \pi }{3}= \frac{- \sqrt{3} }{2} and cos\frac{5 \pi }{3}= \frac{1}{2}.

Since tan \alpha = \frac{sin \alpha }{cos \alpha }, tan\frac{5 \pi }{3}= \frac{\frac{- \sqrt{3} }{2}}{\frac{1}{2} }
tan\frac{5 \pi }{3}=- \sqrt{3}

We can conclude that tan\frac{5 \pi }{3}=- \sqrt{3}.
