The distance from the tower to the fire is 529.10feet

<h3>Angle of depression</h3>

The distance from the tower to the fire is the hypotenuse of the resulting triangle

Given the following

  • Height of the tower = 110ft

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

sin theta = opp/hyp

sin 12 = 110/H

H = 110/sin12

H = 110/0.2079

H = 529.10

Hence the distance from the tower to the fire is 529.10feet

Rearrange the formula to make t the subject:<br> S=d/t
Virty [35]

Answer:

t = d/S

Step-by-step explanation:

S = d/t

Cross multiply

S x t = d

Divide both sides by S

S/S x t = d/S

t = d/S

Which of following is an example of a quadratic inequality?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic inequalities are inequalities involving quadratics.

A is not an inequality.

B is an inequality and we can rewrite B as:

x^2+x

So, B is a quadratic inequality, and is the answer.

C is not a quadratic. The x terms are not squared.

Likewise, D is not a quadratic either since no x terms are being squared.
