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

Hit me up if ur bored but what's 7x-2y=23 squared
goblinko [34]
Simplify 7x + 2y = -23 Solving 7x + 2y = -23 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2y' to each side of the equation. 7x + 2y + -2y = -23 + -2y Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0 7x + 0 = -23 + -2y 7x = -23 + -2y Divide each side by '7'. x = -3.285714286 + -0.2857142857y Simplifying x = -3.285714286 + -0.2857142857y

Area and circumference of this circle
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The radius is 6 cm

To find the area + circumference we need to use 2 formulas:

Area: pi* radius^2

Circumference: 2*pi*r

First we can do the area

I will use "pi" for pi instead of 3.14

pi * 6^2

= 36 pi

The area is 36 pi

Next, circumference

2 * pi *r

2*pi*6

= 12 pi

So the area is 36 pi, and the circumference is 12 pi
