Question

PLEASE GUYS HELP ME I NEED THIS FOR A TEST NOW

Answer 1

Answer:

23.54 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying

cos∅ = adjacent(A)/hypotenuse(H)

cos∅ = A/H................ Equation 1

make H the subject of the equation

H = A/cos∅............ Equation 2

Given: A = 15 m, ∅ = 25°

Substitute into equation 2

H = 15/cos25

H = 16.55 m

Also,

tan∅ = opposite(O)/Adjacent(A)

tan∅ = O/A............Equation 3

Make O the subject of the equation

O = Atan∅.......... Equation 4

Substituting into equation 4

O = 15(tan25°)

O = 6.99 m.

From the diagram,

The height of the goal post before snap = H+O

The height of the goal post before snap = 16.55+6.99

The height of the goal post before snap = 23.54 m
