Answer:
<h2>x = 6.5 cm</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment 20.2 cm is the tangent. Therefore x and 20.2cm are perpendicular.
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
We have
Substitute:
<em>use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²</em>
<em>subtract x² from both sides</em>
<em>subtract 216.09 from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by 29.4</em>
Answer:
7644
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps!
Answer:
i might be wrong but i think its 10
Step-by-step explanation:
x2+8x=9
collet terms
10x=9
divide both side by 10
x = 9/10
alternative form
x = 0.9
<span>The two fires are about 70 feet from each other.
The assumption is that the ground is relatively level and that a right triangle will be made with the three points of the triangle being the ranger, the spot on the ground directly beneath the ranger, and the fire itself. So the distance to the first fire will be:
Calculate the angle. That will be 90° - 11.6° = 78.4°
The distance will be
tan(78.4) = X/60
60 tan(78.4) = X
60 * 4.871620136 = X
292.2972082 = X
And that's how far the 1st fire is from the ranger's station. Now for the 2nd
angle = 90° - 9.4° = 80.6°
60 tan(80.6) = X
60 * 6.040510327 = X
362.4306196 = X
And the distance between the two fires will be the difference in distance from the tower, so
362.4306196 - 292.2972082 = 70.13341146
Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 70 feet.</span>
