A road is inclined at an angle of 5°. After

Mathematics
1 answer:
Scorpion4ik [409]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

464 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The Sine of the angle of inclination gives the increase in altitude.</em>

<em>This is because the Sine of an angle is equal to the Opposite side divided by the Hypotenuse side. i.e</em>

Sin Ф = Opposite  ÷ Hypotenuse

Sin 5° = O ÷ 5328

0·08716 = O ÷ 5328

<em>Make </em>O<em> the subject and multiply every fraction by </em>5328

(0·08716/1 × 5328)= (O/5328 × 5328)

464·388 = O

∴ The increase in altitude is 464·388 feet

<em>This is supposed to be to the nearest foot so we round off</em>

464·388 becomes 464 feet

Give two different sequences of three transformations that would map PQR onto EFG given that PQR=EFG.
Gre4nikov [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1. Translate P to E; rotate ∆PQR about E until Q is coincident with F; reflect ∆PQR across EF
  2. Reflect ∆PQR across line PR; translate R to G; rotate ∆PQR about G until P is coincident with E

Step-by-step explanation:

The orientations of the triangles are opposite, so a reflection is involved. The various segments are not at right angles to each other, so a rotation other than some multiple of 90° is involved. A translation is needed in order to align the vertices on top of one another.

The rotation is more easily defined if one of the ∆PQR vertices is already on top of its corresponding ∆EFG vertex, so that translation should precede the rotation. The reflection can come anywhere in the sequence.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The mapping can be done in two transformations: translate a ∆PQR vertex to its corresponding ∆EFG point; reflect across the line that bisects the angle made at that vertex by corresponding sides.

You have a bag of marbles that has 3 blue marbles and 4 red ones. What is the chance that you pick a blue OR a red marble?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

7/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the amount of the marbles in total and read what color the marble they ask for the chances of. The color of marble should go first then the total of the marbles. (they could ask for more than one color so just add up both the colors given.)

A. Find the measure of m&lt;1<br> B. Find the measure of m&lt;1 ;m&lt;2; m&lt;3
natita [175]

Answer:

A: m<1 = 79 degrees

B: m<1 = 61 degrees, m<2 = 151 degrees, m<3 = 12 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A: An exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles. 27+52 in this case.

B: The sum of the measures of the interior angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Since we know the two angles in the right trinagle are 90 and 29 degrees, we add them and subract the sum from 180 which gives us 61 degrees.

Applying what we know from part A, 61 degrees+90 degrees = m<2.

And, since we know m<2 = 151 degrees, we add that and the 17 degrees to then subtract that sum from 180 to get the measure of angle 3 which is 12 degrees.

Suppose I make several time measurements, and compute an average time of 3.4 s, with a standard deviation of 0.8 s and an SDOM o
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The result will be smaller than 2.6s, 16% of the time.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - xbar)/σ

x = the random value = 2.6 s

xbar = mean = the average = 3.4 s

σ = standard deviation = 0.8 s

z = (2.6 - 3.4)/0.8 = - 1

P(x < 2.6) = P(z < - 1) = 1 - P(z ≥ - 1) = 1 - P(z ≤ 1) = 1 - 0.841 = 0.159 = 16%
