The height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

Let x be the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

The height of the kite above Chee's hand, the string and the horizontal distance between Chee and the kite form a right angled triangle with hypotenuse side, the length of the string and opposite side the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

Since we have the angle of elevation from her hand to the kite is 29°, and the length of the string is 100 ft.

From trigonometric ratios, we have

tan29° = x/100

So, x = 100tan29°

x = 100 × 0.5543

x = 55.43 ft.

Since Chee's hand is y = 3.25 ft above the ground, the height of the kite above the ground, L = x + y

= 55.43 ft + 3.25 ft

= 58.68 ft to the nearest hundredth of a foot

So, the height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

Slope intercept form of points (0,4) and (1,3
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

y = -x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 4-3)/(0-1)

   = 1 /-1

  = -1

The y intercept is (0,4) or 4

The slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -x+4

Estimate the perimeter and the area of the shaded figure to the nearest whole number.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area and perimeter of the given shaded figure are respectively 33.12 unit² and 20.56 units.

Area and perimeter-based problem:

What information do we have?

Radius of semi-circle = 8 / 2 = 4 unit

Length of remain Rectangle = 8 unit

Width of remain Rectangle = 2 unit

Perimeter of shaded figure = πr + (l + 2b)

Perimeter of shaded figure = (3.14)(4) + [4 + (2)(2)]

Perimeter of shaded figure = 12.56 + 4 + 4

Perimeter of shaded figure = 20.56 units

Area of shaded figure = πr²/2 + lb/2

Area of shaded figure = (3.14)(4)²/2 + (8)(2)/2

Area of shaded figure = (3.14)(8) + 8

Area of shaded figure = 25.12 + 8

Area of shaded figure = 33.12 unit²
