Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
sec A = 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Sec of an angle is hypotenuse/adjacent side
In your problem, sec A = 25/20 = 5/4
It helps if you can draw a figure of the problem. Make sure you memorize the definition of each trig function
First, note that
is always positive (except for x=0), so
must be always negative.
Thus, the only plausible graphs are 1 and 3 since they are below the x-axis.
Now,
and
are only defined for x≥0, because only for these x'es we can take the square root.
Note that the third graph has domain (-infinity, 0], so it is not the right one, while 1 is ok.
Answer: first graph
Answer:
height of the flag from the bottom of the boat ≈ 32 ft (nearest foot)
Step-by-step explanation:
She is on her boat and the angle of elevation to the top of the flag is 58°. Her eyes her 6 ft above the bottom of the boat she is sailing on. The height of the flag from the bottom of the boat is the sum of the height of the flag and the remaining height from the horizontal line of sight upward to the flag top.
A right angle triangle was formed Shianne line of sight. The angle from her line of sight is 58° from the horizontal. Therefore,
the adjacent side of the triangle formed is 16 ft which is the distance from the boat to the flag.
adjacent side = 16 ft
opposite angle = ?
using tangential ratio
tan 58° = opposite/adjacent
tan 58° = h/16
cross multiply
h = 16 × 1.60033452904
h = 25.6053524647
height of the flag from the bottom of the boat = 25.6053524647 + 6 = 31.6053524647
height of the flag from the bottom of the boat ≈ 32 ft(nearest foot)
