Tan52° = x/29
The angle of elevation is 52°, so that must be inside the tan function.
Tan is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Jessica’s height is unknown, so we can call that x. The adjacent side of the triangle is the shadow, which is 29’m. Since tan is opposite over adjacent (remember SOH CAH TOA), the fraction must be x/29.
Answer:
54 sq ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle is given by :
Area = (1/2) x base x height
in our case, if we assume the base of the right triangle to be 12 feet, then the height is 9 feet
Substituting this into our equation
Area = (1/2) x 12 x 9
Area = 54 sq ft
The answer would be $102.14 if you divide 255.35 by 5 then multiply it by 2, you'll get 102.14
255.35 divided by 5 = 51.07 x 2 = 102.14
Hope this helps! ;)
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, First you subtract 0x to the other side:
0x-0x+2=1x-0x+3
2=1x+3
Subtract 3 on the other side:
2-3=1x+3-3
-1=1x
Divide:
x=-1
Answer:
- 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
slope equals rise/run--rise is 3 and run is 4 and it's going downhill which makes it negative
