The angle of elevation of the top of a cliff from the point Q on the ground is 30°. On moving a distance of 20
m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of elevation increases to xº. If the height of the cliff is 17.3 m, then
find xo

Answers

Answer 1

On moving a distance of 20m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of

elevation increases to 60° .

The situation forms 2 right angle triangle.

The height of the cliff is the opposite side of the 2 triangles formed.

Using trigonometric ratio, the bigger triangle  can be represented as

follows:

tan 30 = opposite / adjacent

Let the distance from point Q to the foot of the cliff be d.

Therefore,

tan 30° = 17.3 / d

d = 17.3 / tan 30

d = 17.3 / 0.57735026919

d = 29.9644789709

d ≈ 30 m

Let's find the new angle when he moves 20 m towards the foot of the cliff.

The smaller triangle formed is used to find the new angle.

Therefore,

The new distance  from the foot of the cliff (adjacent side) = 30 - 20  = 10 m

tan x° = 17.3 / 10

tan x° = 1.73

x = tan ⁻¹ 1.73

x = 59.9705982385

x  ≈ 60°

Due Tomorrow: answer question 3 using steps

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture is quite fuzzy so I will ASSUME that the triangle has inner angles of 100° and 34° (now I'm told it's 38)

This means the unlabeled angle is 180 - 100 - 34 = 46°

180 - 100 - 38 = 42°

Using law of sines.

a/sin46 = 12/sin34

a/sin42 = 12/sin38

a = 12sin46/sin34 = 15.17415...

a = 12sin42/sin38 = 13.04217...

round as appropriate. I think it my say to the hundredths

a = 15.17

a = 13.04

If I did not guess the numbers in the photo correctly, just use the same technique to arrive at a better solution.

Answer:

1. (x - 1) × (x + 3)

2. x = 3 and y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 2x - 32x + 3y = 0; y = 3x - 11  

rewrite the equation:

y = 3x - 11; 2x + 3y = 0

solve y = 3x - 11 for the y:

y = 3x - 11

substitute 3x - 11 for y in 2x + 3y = 0;

2x + 3y = 0;

2x + 3y = 0

2x + 3 (3x - 11) = 0

11x - 33 = 0 (simplify both sides of the equation)

11x - 33 + 33 = 0 + 33 (add 33 to both sides)

11x = 33

11x/11 = 33/11 (divide both sides by 11)

x = 3

subtitute 3 for x in y = 3x - 11

y = 3x - 11

y = (3)×(3) - 11

y = -2

The weight of an adult standard poodle was found to follow a normal distribution with a mean of 50 pounds and a standard deviation of 15 pounds. If represents the mean weight of a random sample of 7 adult standard poodles, what is (round off to second decimal place)

Answers

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that the distribution of the sample means of the weights of the 7 adult standard poodles is normal, with mean of 50 pounds and standard deviation of 5.67 pounds.

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this problem, for the population, [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 15[/tex].

Sample of 7, hence [tex]n = 7, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{7}} = 5.67[/tex]

The distribution of the sample means of the weights of the 7 adult standard poodles is normal, with mean of 50 pounds and standard deviation of 5.67 pounds.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.

Here, we have,

The equation is given as follows:

y = 2sin(2πx/3) - 4.

we have to define the sine function:

The standard definition of the sine function is given as follows:

y = Asin(B(x - C)) + D.

For which the parameters are given as follows:

A: amplitude.

B: the period is 2π/B.

C: phase shift.

D: vertical shift.

The function has a minimum value of -6 and a maximum value of -2, for a difference of 4, hence the amplitude is given as follows:

2A = 4.

A = 2.

Without vertical shift, a function with amplitude of 2 would oscillate between -2 and 2, while this one oscillates between -6 and -2, hence the vertical shift is given as follows:

D = -4.

The shortest distance between repetitions can be given by 2 - (-1) = 3, hence the period is of 3 units and the coefficient B is given as follows:

2π/B = 3

B = 2π/3.

The function is at it's midline at the origin, hence it has no phase shift, and thus the equation is given as follows:

y = 2sin(2πx/3) - 4.

Answer:

x = 2, x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor it, you can split the middle term to get:

x² - 2x + 5x - 10 = 0

Then, you can factor the first two and the last two to get:

x (x - 2) + 5(x - 2) = 0

And if you divide both sides by (x - 2) you get:

(x - 2) (x + 5) = 0

Finally, this can be solved by the Zero Product Property which states that if x*y=0, then x and/or y has to be equal to 0. If you apply it to the eqaution you get:

x - 2 = 0, x + 5 = 0

which results in:

x = 2, x = - 5

add 8 to both sides

2b=80 (divide both sides by 2)

b = 40

Plug the value of b into the a=b-8

a=40-8
