The situation in the problem creates a right triangle with a base of 14ft. An angle of 65 degrees means that the triangles has...

A hypotenuse of hyp = \frac{14ft}{cos(45)} = 33.13ft, representing the length of the broken part of the pole.

An opposite of sin(65)*hyp = sin(65)*33.1ft = 30.0ft, representing the height of the part of the flag that still stands.

The total original flag height is the sum of the two parts.
h = 30.0ft + 33.13ft = 63.13ft

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2,5) and (3,-4) in the standard (x,y) coordinate plane
Scorpion4ik [409]

To find the slope between two coordinates, you use the formula:

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

If coordinate A is (-2, 5) and coordinate B is (3, -4), then:

y2 = -4

y1 = 5

x2 = 3

x1 = -2

So, just substitute the points into the formula.

m = -4 - 5/3 - (-2)

m = -9/5

The slope of the line is -9/5.
