Applying the tangent ratio, the distance across the suspension bridge is: 499.2 ft.

<h3>What is the Tangent Ratio?</h3>

Where we are given a right triangle, the tangent ratio is determined using the formula, tan ∅ = opposite side/adjacent side.

The diagram atatched beow whos the distance across the suspension bridge which consists of 6 identical right triangles.

Find the adjacent side of each right triangle using the tangent ratio:

∅ = 32

Opposite side = 52 ft

Adjacent side = x

Plug in the values into the tangent ratio:

tan 32 = 52/x

x = 52/tan 32

x = 83.2 ft.

Distance across the suspension bridge = 6(83.2) = 499.2 ft.

Therefore, applying the tangent ratio, the distance across the suspension bridge is: 499.2 ft.

What value of y makes y + (4 - 2y) = 2 true?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y + (4 - 2y) = 2 ← remove parenthesis on left side

y + 4 - 2y = 2, that is

- y + 4 = 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- y = - 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 2
