Answer:

74.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah, the kite and Patricia form the vertices of a right-angled triangle with the hypotenuse side the length of the string L = 60 feet and adjacent side the distance between Hannah and Patricia = d = 16 feet.

Let the angle between the string and the sand be Ф.

By trigonometric ratios,

cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse

= d/L

= 16 feet/60 feet

= 0.2667

Ф = cos⁻¹(0.2667)

= 74.53°

≅ 74.5°

So, he angle between the string and the sand is Ф = 74.5°

Amanda [17]
The double of 25 is (25+25), or (25x25). 7 less would be (25+25) -7. Figure out what 25 + 25 is, then subtract 7 from your answer.

Answer:

NA

a = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

A bisector creates two equal angles. Set them equal to each other.

5a - 160 = 2a - 1  ( subtract 2a from both sides)

3a = 159               (add 159 to both sides)

a = 53                   (divide by 3)

Which expressions are equivalent to the one below? Check all that apply. 53 • 5x
weeeeeb [17]
<span>

</span>Calculate 3 x 5, which is 15.Since 15 is two-digit, we carry the first digit 1 to the next column.

Calculate 5 x 5, which is 25. Now add the carry digit of 1, which is 26.Since 26 is two-digit, we carry the first digit 2 to the next column.

Bring down the carry digit of 2.


<span>Therefore, 53 x 5 = 265.</span>
