To find the ratio between 2 numbers, you need to find the GCF of those 2 numbers. If the GCF is the ratio, the ratio is in it's simplest form.
GCF of 90 and 18 is 18
divide both numbers by the GCF and the final simplest ratio is 5:1
The image for this is attached for reference. This problem can be used by the Pythagorean equation. To make solving convenient, let us see only one part of the tent. Hence, one side is half of the tend width which is 16/2ft. Height is 12 ft. The unknown side is the hypotenuse. The answer is:
Answer:
about 2949 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometry of the situation can be modeled by a right triangle. The height of the cliff can be taken to be the side opposite the given angle, and the distance to the coyote will be the side adjacent to the given angle. The relation between these values is the trig function ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
__
<h3>setup</h3>
Filling in the known values, we have ...
tan(6°) = (310 ft)/(distance to coyote)
<h3>solution</h3>
Multiplying by (distance to coyote)/tan(6°) gives ...
distance to coyote = (310 ft)/tan(6°) ≈ 310/0.105104 ft
distance to coyote ≈ 2949.453 ft
The coyote is about 2949 feet from the base of the cliff.
That means that head was the most one to appear than tails
" of " means multiply
2/3(27) = 54/3 = 18
2/5(20) = 40/5 = 8
so 2/5 of 20 is smaller
