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

Is a triangle with sides that measure 10 inches, 24 inches, and 26 inches a right triangle?
Vlad [161]
Yes because a triangle doesn't have the same sizes and a right triangle should have a 90° angle to be a right triangle

Randy ordered 3 T-shirts for $25.67 each and one skirt for $23.55 and an 8% tax. What is the total cost of the order?
DerKrebs [107]
KP - break this one down to three parts: Total cost of shirts, total cost of shirts and the skirt, and then including tax. 

3 T-shirts for $25.67 each would be 3 * 25.67 = 77.01
Shirts and skirt would be 77.01 + 23.55 = 100.56
Tax can be found quite a few different ways, the easiest of which would be multiplication. 

8% = .08

100.56 (total cost of clothes) * .08 (tax) = $8.05

Now just add tax and total cost of the clothes. Because of rounding, our answer might be slightly different but that's okay because it's multiple choice and only 1 answer makes sense!
