Answer: Archimedes go to sleep at 8.32 metres away from the rock.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rock beside which he slept was 5 meters tall

Height h = 5m

Angle Ø = 31 degree

To get distance x away from the rock, we will use trigonometry function. SohCahToa

TanØ = opposite/adjacent

Tan 31 = 5/x

x = 5/tan31

x = 8.32m

Priya has a piece of string 5/6 yard long. She cuts 3/5 of the piece of string for a craft. What is the length of the string lef
Solnce55 [7]

Total length of the string = \frac{5}{6} yard

Length of string used for craft = \frac{3}{5} of total length of string

= \frac{3}{5} of \frac{5}{6}

= \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{5}{6}

= \frac{3}{6} yard

Length of the string left after use = Total length of the string - Length of string used for craft

Length of the string left after use = \frac{5}{6}-\frac{3}{6}

=\frac{2}{6}

Reducing it to the lowest term, we get

=\frac{1}{3} yard

Therefore, the length of string left is \frac{1}{3} yard.
