Answer:

480.53 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(35) = 1000/hypotenuse1    - multiply by h (hypotenuse)

(h1)cos(35) = 1000        - divide by cos(35)

h1 = 1000 / cos(35)

h1 = 1220.7746

Same thing with the angle of depression of 54 degrees.

h2 = 1000 / cos(54)

h2 = 1701.3016

h2 - h1 = 480.53

A wooden board has a volume of 0.225 cubic m and a mass of 146.25 kilograms.
Triss [41]

Answer:

650 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The density is the ratio of mass to volume. The volume is the product of the dimensions of the prism.

 density = (146.25 kg)/((1.5 m)(0.75 m)(0.2 m)) = 146.25/0.225 kg/m³

 = 650 kg/m³

Hope this answer helps you :)
