Answer:
distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point T is on the horizontal ground and the angle of elevation of the top R of a tower is 63° and the height of the tower is 38 m high. The illustration forms a right angle triangle. The height RS of the tower is the opposite side of the triangle formed. The hypotenuse side of the triangle is the point from the ground T to the top of the tower R. The adjacent side of the triangle is the side TS.
using tangential ratio
tan 63° = opposite/adjacent
tan 63° = 38/adjacent
cross multiply
adjacent tan 63° = 38
divide both sides by tan 63°
adjacent side = 38/tan 63°
adjacent side = 38/1.96261050551
adjacent side = 19.3619670807
distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)
THEOREM:
- <u>Pythagorean theorem</u>:— In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
ANSWER:
By pythagorean property,
- x² = 12² + 9²
- x² = 144 + 81
- x² = 225
- x = √225
- x = 15 units.
So, <u>Correct choice</u> - [C] 15 units.
OPTION C is the correct answer.
