Part A) Find BC, the distance from Tower 2 to the plane, to the nearest foot.
in the triangle ACD
sin16=CD/(7600+BD)--------> CD=sin16*(7600+BD)---------> equation 1
in the triangle BCD
sin24=CD/BD-----------> CD=sin24*BD---------------> equation 2
equation 1=equation 2
sin16*(7600+BD)=sin24*BD-----> sin16*7600+sin16*BD=sin24*BD
sin24*BD-sin16*BD=sin16*7600----> BD=[sin16*7600]/[sin24-sin16]
BD=15979 ft
in the triangle BCD
cos24=BD/BC---------> BC=BD/cos24-------> 15979/cos24-------> 17491
BC=17491 ft
the answer part 1) BC is 17491 ft
Part 2) Find CD, the height of the plane from the ground, to the nearest foot.
CD=sin24*BD ( remember equation 2)
BD=15979 ft
CD=sin24*15979 -----------> CD=6499 ft
the answer part 2) CD is 6499 ft
no because it is not a right angled triangle.
this means angle A is not 90° so AB cant be a tangent.
19) 48 alligators; 7/8 of the alligators were asleep. How many were not asleep?
8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8
48 * 1/8 = 48/8 = 6 alligators were not asleep.
20) 2/3 of the student population participated. 1,500 is the student population of the school. HOw many attended the bike rally?
1500 * 2/3 = 1500*2 / 3= 3000 / 3 = 1000 students attended.
21) 18 times at bat:
Kayla 5/6 of the time = 18 * 5/6 = 18*5 / 6 = 90/6 = 15 hits
Tia 8/9 of the time = 18 * 8/9 = 18*8 / 9 = 144/9 = 16 hits
Tia got more hits.
