Answer:

62.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

           |\----------------------------------------

           |    \   60°

           |        \

   h      |            \

           |                \

           |           60°    \

           ---------------------  A

                    36 m

Point A is 36 m from the foot of the building. The angle of depression above is 60°. m<A = 60°.

tan A = opp/adj

tan 60° = h/(36 m)

h = 36 * tan 60° m

h = 62.4 m

Answer: 62.4 m

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,-2) and (6,-8)
Ber [7]

Answer:

<h2>y = (-2/3)x - 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move to the right from (-3,-2) to (6,-8), x increases by 9 and y decreases by 6.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is

m = rise / run = -6 / 9 = -2/3.

Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line,

y = mx + b, and substituting -2/3 for m, -8 for y and 6 for x, we get the following equation, which enables us to solve for the y-intercept, b:

-8 = (-2/3)(6) + b, or

-8 = -4 + b

Then b = -4, and the desired equation is

y = (-2/3)x - 4.

Will the opposite of zero always ,sometimes or never be zero
jek_recluse [69]
Zero is neutral. Its neither positive nor negative. Because its right in between being positive and negative.

For example: On the number line, as you can see, the opposite of a positive number such as 1 is directly the opposite of -1. But zero has no opposite numbers so it is and always will just be a neutral "0"

Each vertical cross-section of the triangular prism shown below is an isosceles triangle.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

<h3>x = 3 units</h3><h3></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where a = h

           b = 8/2  = 4

           c = 5

<u>plugin values into the formula:</u>

h² + 4² = 5²

h² = 5² - 4²

x = √9

x = 3
