Answer:
32.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation forms a right triangle. We are given the distance from the base of the tower (long leg of the triangle) and are asked to find the height (short leg of the triangle).
With this information, we can use the tan ratio, opposite over adjacent, to find the height of the tower.
tan 18 =
Multiply each side by 100:
(100) tan 18 = x
Simplify and round to the nearest tenth:
32.49 = x
32.5 = x
So, the height of the tower is approximately 32.5 feet

Answer:
15.87%
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the mean of 0.35 inches with a standard deviation of 0.01 gives you when you add (to the right of the distribution), exactly 0.36. Since you want to find the probability (or percentage) of the bolts that have diameter LARGER than 0.36 in, that means you want to estimate the area under the Normal distribution curve from 0.36 to the right). See attached image.
We can use the tables of Z distribution for that, or the standard normal tables:
P(x>0.36) = P(z>(0.36-0.35)/0.01) = P(Z>1) = 0.1587 = 15.87%
