Hello!
As you can see, 22 is the opposite angle. We are looking for the adjacent angle. Let's just call it x. Using SOH CAH TOA, we see that the tangent is the opposite divided by the adjacent side. Let's use that.
tan54≈1.38
This gives us the equation below.
1.38=22/x
Let's solve this equation for x.
1.38x=22
x=22/1.38
x=15.94
Therefore, the length of the shadow is about 15.94 meters.
I hope this helps!
If you are needing to find the distance between the two points, you must use a simple formula, cleverly named, the distance formula. Since I can't input special characters into the answer box, I'll explain it the best I can.
( The square root of ( (x - x)^2 + (y - y)^2 ) )
First, we need to find the first x subtracted from the second x, as so:
(4,5) and (7,-9)
4 - 7 = -3
Now, we square the -3.
-3^2 =
-3 * -3 = 9
Next, we have to find the first y subtracted from the second y.
(4,5) and (7,-9)
5 - (-9) = 14
Now, we square the 14.
14^2 =
14 * 14 = 196
Let's see how the numbers fit in the formula:
sqrt((x - x)^2 + (y - y)^2)
sqrt((4 - 7)^2 + (7 - (-9))^2)
sqrt((-3)^2 + (14)^2)
sqrt( 9 + 196 )
This is where we currently are in the formula, all we have to do now is square root the total of 9 + 196.
sqrt( 9 + 196 )
sqrt( 205 )
The square root of 205 = 14.31782106...
There are a few answers you can consider:
1) sqrt(205)
2) 14.32 units
or
3) 14.31782106
Depending on the answer you desire, use the one that sounds the most correct to you. Although all three are correct, it may not be the answer you require.
Hope I could help! If my math is incorrect, or I provided answers you were not looking for, please let know! However, if my answer is correct and well explained, please consider marking my answer as <em>Brainliest</em>! :)
Have a good one.
God bless!
I think the answer is D. But I am not sure if that's the right answer.
Answer:
B, 5.25 inches cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 x 3.5 x 1 = 5.25
The first number is x axis while the second is y
