-512 is the answer because 512 is a negative solution in Integers math
The horizontal distance is given by the formula:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
where:
θ=21
opposite=2000 ft
adjacent=a
thus calculating for a we get:
tan 21=2000/a
thus
a=2000/tan 21
a=5210.18 ft
Answer: 5210.18 ft
Answer:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-1&\\-1&1/2\\\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D3%26-1%26%5C%5C-1%261%2F2%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
The matrix system for the linear equations: x + 2y = 8, 2x + 6y = 9
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&\\2&6\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}8\\9\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%262%26%5C%5C2%266%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D8%5C%5C9%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
To get the coefficient of x and y, the inverse of the first matrix (let the first matrix be A) must be known.
= (1 / determinant of A) x Adjoint of A
the determinant of A = (1 x 6) - (2 x 2) = 6 - 4 = 2
Adjoint of A = ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&-2&\\-2&1\\\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D6%26-2%26%5C%5C-2%261%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
= ![\frac{1}{2} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&-2\\-2&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D6%26-2%5C%5C-2%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
=
Tangent Θ = opposite / adjacent
AB = short leg = opposite = 12
AC = long leg = adjacent = 5
BC = hypotenuse = 13
tangent Θ = 12/5 ⇒⇒⇒ this is in ratio form
tanΘ = 2.4 ⇒⇒⇒ this is in decimal form
