The distance between the two buildings is 844.23 feet apart, we go this answer by simply applying the SOH CAH TOA method

<h3>Trigonometry</h3>

Given Data

  • Height of Building A (Opp) = 400 feet
  • Angle of Elevation θ = 35°
  • Distance between the buildings Adj = ??

Applying the SOH CAH TOA Approach we have

Tan  θ = Opp/Adj

Substituting our given data we have

Tan 35 = 400/x

0.4738 = 400/x

make x subject of the formula we have

x = 400/0.4738

x = 844.23 feet

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 1 over 2 centered around (2, 2). Which statement is true about the dilation?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Option (1)

1) Segment B'D' will run through (2, 2) and will be shorter than segment BD.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is the attached figure (1).

The statement options are:

1) Segment B'D' will run through (2, 2) and will be shorter than segment BD.

2) Segment B'D' will run through (2, 2) and will be longer than segment BD.

3) Segment B'D' will parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD.

4) Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be longer than segment BD.

==============================================================

See the attched figure (2), which represents Quadrilateral ABCD and the image A'B'C'D'

As shown:

The quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(1,2), B(2,3), C(4,2) and D(2,1).

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 1 over 2 centered around (2, 2).

So,

The quadrilateral A'B'C'D' will be with vertices:

A'= (1.5,2), B'= (2,2.5), C'= (3,2), D'= (2,1.5)

Comparing the options with the figure (2):

So, the answer is option (1)

1) Segment B'D' will run through (2, 2) and will be shorter than segment BD.

In the figure below AB is a diameter of circle P. What is the arc measure of minor arc AC in degrees? ​
arlik [135]

Answer:

P = 139

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question

Required

Determine measure of Arc length AC

The interpretation of this question is to find P

If AB is the diameter, then

P + 41 = 180

P + 41 - 41= 180 - 41

P = 139

<em>Hence, the measure is 139 degrees</em>

I NEEEDDDD HELP PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals divide the rhombus into four congruent triangles.  The height of each triangle is 18/2 = 9, and the hypotenuse is 41.  Using Pythagorean theorem, the width of each triangle is:

c² = a² + b²

41² = 9² + x²

x = 40

Therefore, the longer diagonal is 2×40 = 80.

Cosα=x/L

L=x/cosα, we are told that the ladder base is 48 ft from the base of the wall and α=39° so:

L=48/cos39 ft

L≈61.76 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)
