Answer:

6,535.06 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up is right angles

hypotenuse = 7000feet

angle of elevation = 21 degrees

Required

horizontal distance (adjacent)

Using SOH, CAH TOA trig identity

cos theta = adj/hyp

cos 21 =  adj/7000

adj = 7000 cos 21

adj = 7000(0.9336)

adj =  6,535.06

Hence the HORIZONTAL distance until the plane flies over the island is 6,535.06 feet

marishachu [46]

The given equation is equivalent to Option D .

The mission option is

A. x+10= x+10

B. x+9 =x² + 20x + 100

C. x² +81 = x² + 100

D. x² + 81 = x² +20x + 100

<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement formed when two algebraic expression is equated by an equal sign .

An equation is given in the question

\rm \sqrt{x^2 + 81} = x +10

\rm {x^2 + 9^2} = (x +10)^2

\rm {x^2 + 81} = x^2 +20x + 100

Therefore the given equation is equivalent to Option D .

PLEASE HELP<br><br> Find the surface area of the triangular prism.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

139

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find all the faces that you must find the areas of. In this case, you need to find the areas of two triangles and three rectangles.

In this triangular prism, the base is one triangle. If the area of the base is 7.75, we can assume that that holds true for both bases, and multiply 7.75 by 2 in order to find the area of both triangles.

Now find the area of each of the three rectangles by multiplying their individual heights and bases by each other. You should get 38, 47.5, and 38 as the areas of the rectangles.

Now add all the individual area's together. (They're bolded for clarity).
