Two buildings are 12m apart on the same horizontal level. From the top of the taller building, the angle of depression of the bottom of the shorter building is 48degrees and from the bottom, the angle of of elevation of the top of the shorter building is 36 degrees. Calculate the difference in the heights of the buildings

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.61 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of depression of the bottom of the shorter building from the top of the taller building = 48° equals the angle of elevation of the top of the taller building from the bottom of the shorter building

Using trig ratios

tan48° = H/d where H = height of taller building and d = their distance apart = 12 m

H = dtan48° = 12tan48° = 13.33 m

Also, the angle of elevation of the top of the shorter building from the bottom of the taller building is 36°

Using trig ratios

tan36° = h/d where h = height of shorter building

h =dtan36° = 12tan36° = 8.72 m

Now, the difference in height of the buildings is thus H - h = 13.33 m - 8.72 m = 4.61 m

Which expression is the result of solving the equation ax-b=cy for x (For a[tex]\neq[/tex]0)

Answers

Answer:

x = (cy+b)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

ax-b=cy

Add b to each side

ax-b+b=cy+b

ax = cy +b

Divide each side by a

ax/a = (cy+b)/a

x = (cy+b)/a

-54

Step-by-step explanation:

All the edges of a cube have the same length. Tony claims that the formula SA = 6s, where s is the length of
each side of the cube, can be used to calculate the surface area of a cube.
a. Draw the net of a cube to determine if Tony's formula is correct.
b. Why does this formula work for cubes?
Frances believes this formula can be applied to calculate the surface area of any rectangular prism. Is
she correct? Why or why not?
d. Using the dimensions of Length, Width and Height, create a formula that could be used to calculate the
surface area of any rectangular prism, and prove your formula by calculating the surface area of a
rectangular prism with dimensions L = 5m, W = 6m and H=8m.

Answers

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Net of a cube

Fig. 1 is the net of a cube  

b. Does the formula work?

Tony's formula works if you ignore dimensions.

There are six squares in the net of a cube.

If each side has a unit length s, the total area of the cube is 6s.

c. Will the formula work for any rectangular prism?

No, because a rectangular prism has sides of three different lengths — l, w, and h — as in Fig. 2.

d. Area of a rectangular prism

A rectangular prism has six faces.

A top (T) and a bottom (b) — A = 2×l×w

A left (L) and a right (R)    —   A = 2×l×h

A front (F) and a back (B) —   A = 2×w×h

                                  Total area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

If l = 5 m, w = 6 m and h = 8 m,

[tex]\begin{array}{rl}A &=& \text{2$\times$ 5 m $\times$ 6 m + 2$\times$ 5 m $\times$ 8 m + 2 $\times$ 6 m $\times$ 8 m}\\&=& \text{60 m}^{2} + \text{80 m}^{2} + \text{96 m}^{2}\\&=& \textbf{236 m}^{2}\\\end{array}[/tex]

What is the standard form of function f ?

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = 4x² + 48x + 149

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4(x + 6)² + 5

The above expression can be written as: f(x) = ax² + bx + c, by doing the following:

1. Expand (x + 6)²

(x + 6)² = (x + 6)(x + 6)

(x + 6)(x + 6)

x(x + 6) + 6(x +6)

x² + 6x + 6x + 36

x² + 12x + 36

(x + 6)² = x² + 12x + 36

2. Substitute x² + 12x + 36 for (x + 6)² in

f(x) = 4(x + 6)² + 5

This is illustrated below:

f(x) = 4(x + 6)² + 5

(x + 6)² = x² + 12x + 36

f(x) = 4(x² + 12x + 36) + 5

Clear bracket

f(x) = 4x² + 48x + 144 + 5

f(x) = 4x² + 48x + 149

Therefore, the standard of the function:

f(x) = 4(x + 6)² + 5

is

f(x) = 4x² + 48x + 149

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

First question 8

Second question 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First question

The general formula for both secants is the entire length * the external segment.

Using an example, it is 3*(13 + 3) = 3*16

The other secant will be 4*(x + 4)

These two are equal

4(x + 4) = 3 * 16

4(x + 4) = 48                Divide by 4

x + 4 = 12                    Subtract 4 from both sides

x = 8

Second Question

8(x + 8) = 6(6 + 18)

8x + 64 = 6(24)

8x + 64 = 144            Subtract 64

8x = 80                     Divide by 8

x = 80 /8

x = 10

88.75 for each shirt

Answer:

each shirt costs $17.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the equation 4(12.50) + 4(2x) = 190

because each friend (4 total friends) get one hat and two shirts.

we simplify the equation to 50 + 8x = 190

subtract 50 from both sides

8x = 140

divide both sides by 8

x = 17.5

therefore, each shirt costs $17.50.

Pick out the set of numbers that is not Pythagorean triple
9 40 46
16 30 34
10 24 26
50 120 130

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{9,40,46}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check it using Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

Where c is the longest sides, a and b are rest of the 2 sides

1) 9 , 40 , 46

=> [tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

=> [tex]46^2 = 9^2 + 40^2[/tex]

=> 2116 = 81 + 1600

=> 2116 ≠ 1681

So, this is not a Pythagorean Triplet

2) 16, 30 and 34

=> [tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

=> [tex]34^2 = 16^2 + 30^2[/tex]

=> 1156 = 256 + 900

=> 1156 = 1156

No need to check more as we've found the one which is not a Pythagorean Triplet.

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ \blue{9 , \: 40 \:, 46 \: }}}}}[/tex]

Option A is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let h , p and b are the hypotenuse , perpendicular and base of a right - angled triangle respectively.

From Pythagoras theorem,

[tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

Here, we know that the hypotenuse is always greater than perpendicular and base,

h = 46 , p = 40 , b = 9

⇒[tex] \sf{ {46}^{2} = {40}^{2} + {9}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex]2116 = 1600 + 81[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{2116  ≠ 1681}[/tex]

Thus , the relation [tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex] is not satisfied by h = 46 , p = 40 , b = 9

So, The set of numbers 9 , 40 , 46 is not Pythagorean triple.

------------------------------------------------------

2. 16 , 30 , 34

h = 34 , p = 30 , b = 16

[tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ {34}^{2} = {30}^{2} + {16}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{1156 = 900 + 256}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{1156 = 1156}[/tex]

The relation [tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex] is satisfied by the particular values of h , p and b i.e h = 34 , p = 30 , b = 16

So, the set of numbers 16 , 30 , 34 is a Pythagorean triple.

------------------------------------------------------

3. 10, 24 , 26

h = 26 , p = 24 , b = 10

[tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ {26}^{2} = {24}^{2} + {10}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{676 = 576 + 100}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{676 = 676}[/tex]

The relation [tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex] is satisfied by the particular values of h , p and h i.e h = 26 , p = 24 , b = 10

So, the set of numbers 10, 24 , 26 is the Pythagorean triple.

-----------------------------------------------------

4. 50 , 120 , 130

h = 130 , p = 120 , b = 50

[tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ {130}^{2} = {120}^{2} + {50}^{2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{16900 = 14400 + 2500}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{16900 = 16900}[/tex]

The relation [tex] \sf{ {h}^{2} = {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} }[/tex] is satisfied by the particular values of h , p and b i.e h = 130 , p = 120 , b = 50

So, the set of numbers 50, 120 , 130 is the Pythagorean triple.

-----------------------------------------------------

In this way, to satisfy the Pythagoras Theorem , the hypotenuse ( h ) , perpendicular ( p ) and the base ( b ) of a right - angles triangle should have the particular values in order. These values of h , p and b are called Pythagorean triple.

Hope I helped!

Answer: Yes it is a function.

========================================================

Explanation:

It is a function because any x input leads to exactly one y output. The graph visually passes the vertical line test. It is impossible to draw a single vertical line through more than one point on the cubic curve, so that's why the graph passes the test, and visually confirms we have a function.

Extra info:

Something that isn't a function is [tex]y^2 = x[/tex] because it graphs a sideways parabola in which it is possible to draw a vertical line through more than one point on the curve. Two points on this parabola are (9, 3) and (9, -3). The input x = 9 corresponds to more than one output y = 3 and y = -3 simultaneously.
