Answer:

435 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = <P = 49° (angle of elevation)

Opposite side = 500 ft

Adjacent side = d = ?

Apply trigonometric function, TOA.

This:

Tan P = opp/adj

Tan 49 = 500/d

d × Tan 49 = 500

d = 500/Tan 49

d = 434.643369 ≈ 435 ft (to the nearest foot)

5. m∠C = 95°

6. m∠C = 70°

7. The other acute angle in the right triangle = 70°

8. m∠C = 70°

9. m∠C = 60° [equilateral triangle]

<h3>What are Triangles?</h3>

A triangle is a 3-sided polygon with three sides and three angles. The sum of all its interior angles is 180 degrees. Some special triangles are:

  • Isosceles triangle: has 2 equal base angles.
  • Equilateral triangle: has three equal angles, each measuring 60 degrees.
  • Right Triangle: Has one of its angles as 90 degrees, while the other two are acute angles.

5. m∠C = 180 - 50 - 35 [triangle sum theorem]

m∠C = 95°

6. m∠C = 180 - 25 - 85 [triangle sum theorem]

m∠C = 70°

7. The other acute angle in the right triangle = 180 - 90 - 25 [triangle sum theorem]

The other acute angle = 70°

8.  m∠C = 180 - 55 - 55 [isosceles triangle]

m∠C = 70°

9. m∠C = 60° [equilateral triangle]

10. Measure of the exterior angle at ∠C = 50 + 60

Measure of the exterior angle at ∠C = 110°

11. m∠B = 115 - 45

m∠B = 70°

12. m∠Z = 180 - 35 - 75

m∠Z = 70°

Hiiio!!Can someone please help me ❤️:D
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of 216 : 64

bigger is 20 inches

so divide 20 by 216... to find the unit.. then multiply that by 64 to find the size of the other

20/216 = 0.0925925

0.0925925 * 64 =5.9259"

so about 6 inches

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

2 stalls

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Hayes has 11 straw bundles to use forr bedding in his horse stalls. What is the greatest number of stalls he can fill if each stall holds exactly 4 bundles

1 stall = 4 bundles

4 bundles = 1 stall

11 bundles = x

Cross Multiply

4x = 11

x = 11/4

x = 2 3/4 stalls

The greatest number of stalls he can build is 2 stalls
