Tan52° = x/29
The angle of elevation is 52°, so that must be inside the tan function.
Tan is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Jessica’s height is unknown, so we can call that x. The adjacent side of the triangle is the shadow, which is 29’m. Since tan is opposite over adjacent (remember SOH CAH TOA), the fraction must be x/29.
To solve y, we need to make y the only value on the left hand side of the equation:
Therefore the value of y = -14+3x.
Hope it helps!
Answer: A. -8 on edge
explanation: have a good day :)

Answer:
The bottom one ....see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Using reference angle of pi/8 and half angle trig identity:
cos ( angle/2) = -sqrt (1 + cos (angle) /2)
cos ( pi/4 / 2) = - sqrt (1+ cos ( pi/4)/2)
<u> cos (pi/8)</u> = - sqrt (1 + sqrt (2) / 2)
= - sqrt (1 + sqrt 2) / sqrt 2 rationalize the denominator
= - sqrt ( sqrt 2 + 2) / 2
re arrange to
- sqrt ( 2 + sqrt2) / 2 the fourth answer
