We are given an angle of elevation of 2 degrees and distance in the x axis of 5280 feet and we are asked in the problem to determine the height of the building. We use the tangent function to determine the height: that is tan 2 = h / 5280; h is equal then to 184 ft.

A is definitely the answer.
Answer:
20 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups of sugar in a bag = 15
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie = 3/4 cup
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 3/4 : 1
what's the greatest number of batches of cookies that can be made with the bag of sugar
Let
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 15 : x
Equate the ratios
3/4 : 1 = 15 : x
3/4 ÷ 1 = 15/x
3/4 × 1/1 = 15/x
3/4 = 15/x
Cross product
3 * x = 4 * 15
3x = 60
x = 60/3
x = 20
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar = 20 batches
