Answer:

36.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by drawing a right triangle and doing trigonometry. We can draw our triangle with a height of 51 and a base of 68. In order to find the angle from the ground to the sun we can use arctangent (tan^-1). Since tan(angle)=opposite/adjacent we can find the angle by doing angle=tan^-1(51/68)

PY=2, HP=3, find HY<br><br> Geometry
klemol [59]

Answer:

HY=\sqrt{5}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The triangle HPY is a right triangle (because the angle ∠HYP is a right angle)

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

HP^2=HY^2+PY^2

substitute the given values

3^2=HY^2+2^2

Solve for HY

9=HY^2+4

HY^2=9-4

HY^2=5

HY=\sqrt{5}\ units

Try this B E Given: BELO, BOLE Prove ABEL ALOB Complete the Proof Statements 1. 2. BO=LE 3. 4. ∆BEL =∆LOB REASONS 1.GIVEN 2. 3.
AnnZ [28]

The given congruency of the sides \mathbf{\overline{BE}} and \mathbf{\overline{LO}}  and \mathbf{\overline{BO}} and \mathbf{\overline{LE}} as well

as the congruency of the common side \mathbf{\overline{BL}} gives.

ΔBEL ≅ ΔLOB by SSS congruency postulate

<h3>Which values correctly completes the table?</h3>

The completed two column proof is presented as follows;

Statement {}                                          Reasons

1. \underline{\overline{BE} \cong \overline{LO}}                       {}                  1. Given

2. \overline{BO} ≅ \overline{LE}                       {}                 2.

3. \underline{\overline{BL} \cong \overline{BL}}                       {}                  3. <u>Reflexive property of congruency</u>

4. ΔBEL ≅ ΔLOB                     {}           4. <u>SSS congruency postulate</u>

Side-Side-Side, SSS, congruency postulate states that if three sides of

one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, the two

triangles are congruent.
