By the Pythagorean theorem,
.. x^2 +(x -46)^2 = (x +4)^2
.. 2x^2 -92x +2116 = x^2 +8x +16
.. x^2 -100x +2100 = 0
.. (x -50)^2 -400 = 0
.. x = 50 ±20 . . . . . only x=70 makes any sense in the problem
The height, x, of the tree is 70 meters.
Answer:
cosθ = -√(35/36)
tanθ = -1/√35
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
sin²θ + cos²θ = 1
(1/6)² + cos²θ = 1
1 - (1/6)² = cos²θ
35/36 = cos²θ
sec θ = 1/ cosθ
1/ secθ = cos θ
Because secθ < 0, 1/ secθ would also be < 0, so cos θ < 0
cosθ = -√(35/36)
tanθ = sinθ/cosθ = (1/6)/-√(35/36)
= (1/6) / -(√35/6)
= -1/√35
Answer:
0.69
Step-by-step explanation:
Just did it on edge and got it right
5/8 - 1/8 = 4/8
4/8 in it's simplest form is 1/2
Yes because when you subtract a number, you can also say that you added a negative. So if it dropped 23 degrees, then you also added -23 degrees
