A forest ranger in a 110 ft observation tower sees a fire. The angle of depression is 12 degrees. To the nearest foot, what is t

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

-2 3/4 ÷ -1/7= <br>help​
Hitman42 [59]

The answer is 19\frac{1}{4}

First you must set up the equation

-2\frac{3}{4}÷-\frac{1}{7}

First, you must make the mixed number a improper fraction

-\frac{11}{4}÷-\frac{1}{7}

Then you must divide

\frac{77}{4}

Finally, simplify

19\frac{1}{4}

A plane is flying from Albuquerque new Mexico to Austin Texas so far it has flown 161 miles or 23% of the total distance of the
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: 700 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that 23% of the total distance of the flight from Albuquerque New Mexico to Austin Texas is 161 miles.

2. Then, keeping that information on mind, you can calculate the total distance of the flight (which you call x) as following:

\frac{161miles}{23\%}=\frac{x}{100\%}

Solve for x. Then, you obtain that the result is:

x=\frac{161miles*100\%}{23\%}\\x=700miles
