Answer:
84.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
It is often helpful to draw a diagram for word problems involving geometric relationships. One for this problem is shown below.
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship between sides of a right triangle:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Here we're given angles of depression measured from the horizontal (as shown in the diagram), but it is more convenient to use angles measured from the vertical. In particular, ∠BAO is the complement of 60°, and its tangent is the ratio OB/OA:
tan(30°) = OB/OA
OB = (200 m)·tan(30°) ≈ 115.47 m . . . . . . multiply by OA, use OA=200 m
Likewise, we have ...
OC = (200 m)·tan(45°) = 200 m
Then the width of the river is the difference between these values:
BC = OC -OB = 200 m - 115.47 m = 84.53 m
Answer:
AC = 6.05 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We can draw two different trapeziums with the information given.
The possible drawings of the trapezium ABCD are in the image attached.
In both trapeziums, the length of AC is the same, and we can calculate this length using the law of cosines in the triangle ABC:
AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2 - 2 * AB * BC * cos(B)
AC^2 = 4.8^2 + 6.8^2 - 2 * 4.8 * 6.8 * cos(60)
AC^2 = 23.04 + 46.24 - 65.28 * 0.5
AC^2 = 36.64
AC = 6.05 cm
Answer:
72 cm is equivalent to 28,3464566929 inches.

Answer:
<u>7 squares</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Key skills: Counting, Averages</u>
1) Based on what I counted, there are 11 columns, and 53 squares. If you want an average of 5 squares per column and you have 12 columns, the total number of squares you want is 60.
2) Since there are already 53 squares present, you need 60-53 = <u>7 squares</u> more.
