As for the right angle triangle the ratio of opposite side to the hypotenuse side is equal to the sine angle.

The distance of the top of the slide from the ground is 24 foot (to nearest foot). Thus option 3 is the correct option.

<h3>What is right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle is a triangle in which, one of the angle measures equals to the 9 degrees.

Given information

The angle of depression from top of the slide to the pool is 31. 66°.

The height of the slide is 46 feet.

Image is attached below for the given problem.

As for the right angle triangle the ratio of opposite side to the hypotenuse side is equal to the sine angle.

Thus,

\sin(31.6^o)=\dfrac{x}{46} \\x=46\times \sin (31.6^o)\\x=46\times 0.5249\\x=24.145

Hence the distance of the top of the slide from the ground is 24 foot (to nearest foot). Thus option 3 is the correct option.

Exercise 1:

The easiest way to compute powers of complex numbers is to write them in the form

z = \rho e^{i\theta} = \rho(\cos(\theta)+i\sin(\theta))

In this form, you have

z^n = \rho^n e^{in\theta} = \rho^n(\cos(n\theta)+i\sin(n\theta))

The magnitude of the number is given by

z=a+bi \implies \rho = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

So, we have

z=-1+\sqrt{3}i \implies \rho = \sqrt{1+3}=2

As for the angle, we have

z=a+bi \implies \theta = \text{atan2}\dfrac{b}{a}

So, we have

z=-1+\sqrt{3}i \implies \theta = \text{atan2}\left(\dfrac{-\sqrt{3}}{-1}\right) = -\dfrac{2\pi}{3}

Finally,

z=-1-\sqrt{3}i = 2\left(\cos\left( -\dfrac{2\pi}{3}\right) + i\sin\left( -\dfrac{2\pi}{3}\right)\right) \implies z^6 = 2^6\left(\cos\left( -4\pi\right) + i\sin\left(-4\pi\right)\right) = 64

Exercise 2:

You simply have to compute the trigonometric function:

\cos\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right) = \dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2},\quad \sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

So, we have

z = \sqrt{2}\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - i\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) = 1-i

If your slope is undefined, what would you put for M in Point slope form?

Answer:

You can not write an equation then because it would just be a vertical line, ex: x=4 or x=-4. I hope this helps!

Determine the common ratio and find the next three terms of the geometric sequence t8, t5, t2
attashe74 [19]
The common ratio of the given geometric sequence is the number that is multiplied to the first term in order to get the second term. Consequently, this is also the number multiplied to the second term to get the third term. This cycle goes on and on until a certain term is acquired. In this item, the common ratio r is,

    r = t⁵/t⁸ = t²/t⁵

The answer, r = t⁻³.

The next three terms are,

    n₄ = (t²)(t⁻³) = t⁻¹
    n₅ = (t⁻¹)(t⁻³) = t⁻⁴
    n₆ = (t⁻⁴)(t⁻³) = t⁻⁷

The answers for the next three terms are as reflected above as n₄, n₅, and n₆, respectively.
