Answer: 77.05

Step-by-step explanation:    1) Draw a right triangle with these measures:

angle with the horizontal: 6 degress

horizontal segment: 5

height: x

2) Definition of tangent : tan(6°) = opposite leg / adjacent leg = x / 5 =>

3) Solve for

x = 5tan(6°) = 77.05

Oleg, Sasha, and Dima shared 600 toys. Sasha had twice as many toys as Oleg. Dima had 40 more toys than Oleg. How many toys did
Vilka [71]

Oleg, Sasha, and Dima shared 600 toys. Sasha had twice as many toys as Oleg. Dima had 40 more toys than Oleg.

Let the number of toys Oleg has = x

Let the number of toys Sasha has = y

Let the number of toys Dima has = z

Sasha had twice as many toys as Oleg

So y = 2*x= 2x

Dima had 40 more toys than Oleg.

z = x + 40

Oleg, Sasha, and Dima shared 600 toys

x + y + z= 600

We know y=2x and z=x+40

Replace it for y and z

x + y + z = 600

x + 2x + x + 40 = 600

4x + 40 = 600

Subtract 40 on both sides

4x =  600 - 40

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = \frac{560}{4} = 140

Oleg had 140 toys

The formula for a trapezoid relates the area A, the two bases, a and b, and the height, h.
Keith_Richards [23]

multiply both sides by 2 to get

2A = (a+b)*h

divide both sides by h

 to get 2A/h = a+b

 subtract b from both sides to get a = 2A/h -b


3rd choice is correct

Yesenia has a 13 ft ladder that she placed against a
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using formula (pythagorean theorem)

a² + b² = c²

Where :

13 = c

and 5 = a

5² + b² = 13²

25 + b² = 169

169 - 25 = b²

144 = b²

Sq root b = 12

It will reach up 12 ft.

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!
