A lighthouse keeper has a 10 degrees angle of depression between the horizontal light beam and the line of sight from the ship.

Andrei [34K]

107.75m
This is a trigonometric ratio problem. the angle of depression (10) is opposite the height (19m) and the distance is adjacent to the distance (x). opposite ad adjacent sides to the angle is a tangent problem.
$tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj}$
plus in values, we know.
$tan (10) = \frac{19}{x}$
switch tan(10) and x using the products property.
$x = \frac{19}{tan (10)}$
plug in to calulator to get answer
x=107.75

.?????????????????????????

weqwewe [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide fractions, we have to focus on 4 steps, which are:

1: Change to improper fractions

2: Keep the same

3: Change the sign to multiplication

4: Flip the 2nd fraction in the equation

So, step one:

1/3 / 4/5

Step two:

1/3 / 4/5

Step three:

1/3 x 4/5

Step four:

1/3 x 4/5 = (4 / 15)

4/15 is in simplist for.

Therefore, your answer is 4/15.

Best of Luck to you!!

Line FG goes through the points (4,9) and (1,3). Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to FG and passes through

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

$x + 2y= 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points:

$F = (4,9)$

$G = (1,3)$

Required

Determine the equation of line that is perpendicular to the given points and that pass through $(2,0)$

First, we need to determine the slope, m of FG

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where

$F = (4,9)$ --- $(x_1,y_1)$

$G = (1,3)$ --- $(x_2,y_2)$

$m = \frac{3 - 9}{1 - 4}$

$m = \frac{- 6}{- 3}$

$m =2$

The question says the line is perpendicular to FG.

Next, we determine the slope (m2) of the perpendicular line using:

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{m}$

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

The equation of the line is then calculated as:

$y - y_1 = m_2(x - x_1)$

Where

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,0)$

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)$

$y = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)$

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 1$

Multiply through by 2

$2y = -x + 2$

Add x to both sides

$x + 2y= -x +x+ 2$

$x + 2y= 2$

Hence, the line of the equation is $x + 2y= 2$
