Answer:
42°
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, it may help you to draw it out to visualize it. You want to find the angle between the stream and road. Based on the description the triangle looks like this.
/ |
Stream(27) / | Road( 20)
/__|
Fence
You know the length of the road is 20, and the stream is 27. The angle can be found by using Cos∅=a/h. Adjacent to where the road and stream meet is the road, 20, and hypotenuse is the stream, 27.
So 20/27 = .74 = Cos∅
To find the angle ∅ use inverse cosine to get 42°.
Hope that helps and let me know if I did anything incorrectly!
Answer:
84 feet to the nearest foot.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a right angled triangle with adjacent side (A) = 100 and you want to find the height of the tower, the opposite side (O).
A = 100 , O = ? so we need the tangent , (from SOH-CAH-TOA).
tan 40 = O/ 100
O = 100 tan 40
= 83.9 feet.
I think the answer is 80 because I’m point 2 it’s is 40 and in point 3 is 60 and in point 5 is 100 so I am guessing each goes by 20 so what is between 60 and 100 if you can’t by 20s would be 80 I don’t know if I am correct tho
