The horizontal distance to the control tower is approximately 18506.83m

Data;

  • distance from the ground = 3900m
  • angle of elevation = 11.4 degrees
  • horizontal distance = ?

<h3>Trigonometric Ratio</h3>

To solve this problem, we need to use trigonometric ratio SOHCAHTOA.

In this case, we have the value of opposite and angle and we need to find the adjacent to the angle. The tangent of the angle would be perfect for this.

tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan11.4 = \frac{3900}{x}\\x = \frac{3900}{tan11.4}\\ x = 18506.83m

The horizontal distance to the control tower is approximately 18506.83m

4vir4ik [10]
24 bottles x 591 mL/bottle = 14,184 mL

Since 1L = 1000 mL,

14,184 mL x 1L/1000mL = 14,184/1000 = 14.184L (14 whole liters)

Classify the following expression by degree and term: x^3y + 5xyz A: 3rd degree trinomial B: 4th degree binomial C: 3rd degree b
drek231 [11]

Answer:

4th degree binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3y + 5xyz

Add the exponents on each term

3+1 = 4     1+1+1 =3

The highest power is the degree, so it is a 4th degree

It also has 2 terms so it is a binomial

4th degree binomial
