A firefighter sees a woman trapped in a building 91 feet up from the bottom floor. If the
firetruck is parked 67 feet away from the bottom of the building, at what angle of elevation, to
the nearest degree, should the firefighter extend the ladder to reach the woman?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The firefighter should extend the ladder at 54° of elevation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometric Ratios

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. There are six trigonometric ratios, sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent.

The longest side of the triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are the legs.

Selecting any of the acute angles as a reference, it has an adjacent side and an opposite side. The trigonometric ratios are defined upon those sides.

Tangent Ratio:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}[/tex]

The woman is trapped at 91 feet up from the ground, and the firetruck is 67 feet away from the building.

The wall, the ground, and the ladder form a right triangle, where θ is the horizontal angle of the ladder.

Being the height of the woman the opposite leg and the distance where the firetruck is parked, the adjacent leg:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{91}{67}=1.3582[/tex]

The angle is calculated as the inverse tangent:

[tex]\theta=arctan(1.3582)\approx 54^\circ[/tex]

The firefighter should extend the ladder at 54° of elevation.

A parallelogram in a coordinate plane is translated, rotated, and then reflected. Which of the following statements about the parallelogram and its final image are true

Answers

Answer:

Option (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformations like translation, rotation, dilation and reflection are the examples of rigid transformations.

Since, size and shape remains unchanged in the rigid transformation,

Image of a parallelogram will remain the same (congruent) after the given transformations.

Therefore, Option (4) will be the answer.

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

So you need to do f(x) 5x^2+3x-19+3

You would simplify the equation to get to y=4x+5f(x)+2

Naturally, you would now graph the equation to a linear degree but still inducing a parabellum, y-(d-3)=0

Then solve using the square method (b/2)^2=(6)^2

Then put the 6 on both sides of the equation.

6^2+w0+8x+7t^2

A. 2.59 joules
B. 3.88 joules
C. 38.82 joules
D. 150.00 joules

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

i think

The required work done is 38.82 joules.

Work done to be determine for force of 10 newton on angle of 75° for 15 meters.

What is work done?

Work done is define as the force required to move an object by some displacement.

Here, work done = force x displacement x cosФ
                          =  10 x 15 x cos75°
                          =   150 x 0.25

                           = 38.82 joules

Thus, the required work done is 38.82 joules.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{25}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

16% is equal to [tex]\frac{16}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16}{100}[/tex] can be simplified by dividing by 2, giving you [tex]\frac{8}{50}[/tex], which can be divided by 2 again, giving you [tex]\frac{4}{25}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{4}{25}[/tex] can't be simplified again.

Answer:

16% = 4/25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, turn the percentage (16%) into a fraction with 100 in the denominator:

16% = 16/100

Now, you just need to simplify 16/100:

16/100

= 4/25

Both sides were divided by 4 to get the most simplified answer because 4 is the greatest common factor of 16 and 100.

15 points!

Answers

Answer:

Translate P to E; rotate ∆PQR about E until Q is coincident with F; reflect ∆PQR across EFReflect ∆PQR across line PR; translate R to G; rotate ∆PQR about G until P is coincident with E

Step-by-step explanation:

The orientations of the triangles are opposite, so a reflection is involved. The various segments are not at right angles to each other, so a rotation other than some multiple of 90° is involved. A translation is needed in order to align the vertices on top of one another.

The rotation is more easily defined if one of the ∆PQR vertices is already on top of its corresponding ∆EFG vertex, so that translation should precede the rotation. The reflection can come anywhere in the sequence.

Additional comment

The mapping can be done in two transformations: translate a ∆PQR vertex to its corresponding ∆EFG point; reflect across the line that bisects the angle made at that vertex by corresponding sides.

find area and perimeter

pls show work

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so first you can split the object into 2 different shapes like the first picture.

next you can start with shape labeled 1

and the perimeter of that would be 5+5+4+4 =14

so the perimeter is shape 1 is 14

the area would be5×4 which is 20

now shape 2 the perimeter of that would be 8+8+2+2 which is 20

the area would be 8×2 which would be 16

so then you add the are and perimeter of each shape together

p= 14+20=34

a= 20+16= 36

Sandra hikes 9/10 mile every 30 minutes,or 1/2 hour. How many miles does she hike each hour?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first half hour, Sandra hikes 9/10 = 0.9 miles. She hikes that distance again in the second half-hour. After an hour, Sandra has hiked ...

  2 × 0.9 miles = 1.8 miles

__

If you like, you can consider it a "unit rate" problem. To find miles per hour, divide miles by hours:

  (9/10 mi)/(1/2 h) = (9/10)(2/1) mi/h = 9/5 mi/h = 1.8 mi/h

Sandra hikes 9/5 or 1.8 miles in an hour.

diameter of the cylinder given that the volume is 704 cm³ and the height is 14 cm .​

Answers

Answer:

8.00 cm (to 3 s.f.)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{volume \: of \: cylinder = \pi {r}^{2}h }[/tex]

*r= radius of the cylinder

h= height of cylinder

Substitute the given volume and height into the formula:

704= πr²(14)

[tex]{r}^{2} = \frac{704}{14\pi}[/tex]

Square root both sides:

[tex]r = \sqrt{ \frac{704}{14\pi} } \\ r = 4.0008 \: (5 \: s.f.)[/tex]

Diameter= 2(radius)

∴ Diameter of cylinder

= 2(4.0008)

= 8.0016

= 8.00cm (3 s.f.)

The cost of renting Party Palace is $ 120 plus $ 15 per person attending the party. If the total cost of renting Party Palace is $ 480 , how many people attend the party?

Answers

Answer:

24 individuals

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the actual costs as well as the final total then we can calculate the total number of people that attended the party by doing the following. We first subtract the fixed cost of $120 by the total cost of the party, and then we divide the remainder by the cost per person, which would give us the number of people who attended (x) ...

($480 - $120) / $15 = x

$360 / $15 = x

24 = x

Finally, we can see that a total number of 24 individuals attended the party
