The angle of elevation to the sun is 24°. What is the length of the shadow cast by a person 1.82 m tall? A. 0.81 m B. 1.99 m C. 4.09 m D. 4.47 m

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 4.09 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shadow cast by a person be x m.

[tex] \tan \: 24 \degree = \frac{height \: of \: person}{length \: of \: the \: shadow} \\ \\ 0.4452286853 = \frac{1.82}{x} \\ \\ x = \frac{1.82}{0.4452286853} \\ \\ x = 4.08778693 \: m \\ x = 4.09 \: m[/tex]

Answer 2

The length of the shadow cast by a person 1.82m tall is 4.99m.

What is the angle of elevation?

The angle of elevation is an angle a person's sight is making with the object if he stands in the front of an object.

How to determine the length of the shadow casted?

We have been given that the angle of elevation to the sun is 24 degree and the person is 1.82m tall. Then the length of the shadow will be:

tan(24)=1.82/length of the shadow

0.445286853=1.82/length of the shadow

length of the shadow=4.087

=4.09 (approx)

Hence the length of the shadow cast by a person 1.82m tall is 4.09m if the angle of elevation to the sun is 24 degrees.

Find the least number which should be subtracted from 500 to make it a perfect square​

Answers

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square is basically some number multiplied by itself. For example, 4 is a perfect square because 2x2=4.

22 x 22 = 484 (under 500)

23 x 23 = 529 (over 500)

Therefore, the perfect square must be 484.

Subtract 484 from 500:

500 - 484 = 16

16 is the answer :)

Find the area of a circle with a diameter of 20 inches. Use 3.14 for pi

Answers

Answer:

The area of the circle is 314 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area if a circle = πr²

r = radius

r= d/2

r=20 /2

r=10 inches

Area =3.14×10²

= 3.14×100

=314 inches

Answer:

314 in. cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a circle is:

A= πr²

Pi is 3.14 so substitute that in

A= 3.14(r)²

The radius is 10 because the radius is half of the diameter.  Half of 20 is 10.  So substitute that in the radius symbol.

A= 3.14(10)²

Square 10, which is 10 times 10.  10 times 10 equals 100.

A= 3.14(100)

100 times 3.14 is 314 because 100 has two zeroes which means you move the decimal point in 3.14 two places to the right.  It gets you 314.0 which is just 314.

A= 314

What is round figures in maths?

Rounding a number of means simplifying it while retaining its value close to what it was. The end output is less accurate but more usable. For instance, 73 rounded to the closest ten is 70, because 73 is closer to 70 than 80.

The tens' digit is the rule for rounding to the closest a hundred. If the number is five or more, round up. If the number is four or less, round down. Consider the number formed by the digits in the tens and one's columns when rounding to the nearest hundred.

To round to the next thousand, write down the multiple of 1000 closest to our number. The thousands' digit will either remain unchanged or rise by one.

Therefore, the nearest 10 is 325.6.

if 2x^2+2x=12, what is x?

Answers

Answer:

x= 2

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving as normal quadratic equation:

2x^2+2x=12x^2 +x = 6x^2 + x - 6= 0x = (-1 ± √(1+4*1*6)/2 x = ( - 1 ± √25)/2 x = (-1 ± 5)/2x= 2x= -3

Roots are 2 and -3

Answer:

x = - 3 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² + 2x - 12 = 0

Divide all the terms by 2 to simplify the terms

That's

x² + x - 6 = 0

Write x as a difference

That's

x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = 0

Factor x out of the equation

That's

x( x + 3) - 2x - 6 = 0

Factor out - 2 from the expression

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

Factor out x + 3 from the expression

That's

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

x + 3 = 0 x - 2 = 0

x = - 3 x = 2

Both Galapagos islands and the Island of Nauru are on the equator, but the Galapagos islands are at 90°W where the Island of Nauru is at 166.50°E. How far is it from the Galapagos islands to Nauru traveling over the Pacific ocean along the equator, correct to the nearest km?

Answers

Answer:

11565 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

But before reaching the final solution first we need to do the following calculations

The angle lies between the Galapagos  and  Nauru is

= 90° + 166.50°

= 256.5°

Since the sum of angle is 360 degrees

So the major arc and the minor arc is

= 360° -  256.5°

= 103.50°

Now the angles lies between galapagos islands is

= 180°  - 90°

= 90°

And, between the naura island is

= 180°  - 166.50°

= 13.5°

Now the total of this two island is

= 90°  + 13.5°

= 103.5°

The length is

[tex]= \frac{\pi r }{180^{\circ}} \times \theta\\\\ = \frac{6,400\pi}{180^{\circ}} \times 103.5^{\circ}[/tex]

If m∠OZQ = 125 and m∠OZP = 62, what is m∠PZQ

Answers

Answer:

              63° or  173°

Step-by-step explanation:

You didn't specify where the point P is so there are two posibilites:

1.

P₁Z is dividing angle OZQ

then:

      m∠P₁ZQ = m∠OZQ - m∠OZP₁ = 125° - 62° = 63°

2.

P₂Z is outside angle OZQ

then

    m∠P₂ZQ = 360° - (m∠OZQ + m∠OZP₂) = 360° - (125° + 62°) = 173°

The dot plots below show the scores for a group of students for two rounds of a quiz: Which of the following inferences can be made using the dot plots? The range of round 2 is greater than the round 1 range. Round 2 scores are higher than round 1 scores. Round 1 scores are lower than round 2 scores. There is no overlap between the data.

Answers

Answer: Choice A) round 2 has larger range

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

Explanation:

Choice A is true. The range is the difference of the max and min. Round 1 has a range of 5-4 = 1, while round 2's range is 5-1 = 4. Round 2 has a larger range of scores. We don't really need to do any kind of math here. We can simply spot that round 2 has its dots more spread out compared to round 1, so round 2 must have the larger range.Choice B is somewhat true. If we compare a score of 4 in round 1 to a score of 5 in round 2, then round 2 has a higher score. But we could easily flip things around. So saying one round has higher scores than the other is not particularly meaningful in this scenario. I would say it all depends on how you phrase the problem carefully. In any event, I would say that choice B is false since we can't definitively say it's true.Choice C is a similar story as choice B, just flip things around. So I'd say this is false too. We would need all of the dots of round 1 to be to the left of all the dots of round 2, in order for choice C to be a true statement. Because there's overlap, we run into a problem. Choice D is false because there is overlap for scores 4 and 5. In other words, both dot plots have dots over "4" and over "5". These are the scores the dot plots share in common.

A tree is broken at a height of 5 meters from the ground and it's top touches the ground existence of 12 m from the base of the tree find the original height of the tree

Answers

Answer:

18 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The given situation is equivalent to a right angled triangle as shown in the diagram attached.

AB is the height at which tree was cut.

And the top touches the ground at a point C.

So,

AB = 5 m and

AC = 12 m

Here, we have to find original height of the tree.

Original height of Tree = AB + BC OR AB + BC' (Because B is the point in height AC' of tree)

Let us consider the [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex].

As per pythagorean theorem:

[tex]\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow BC^{2} = AB^{2} + AC^{2}\\\Rightarrow BC ^2=5^2+12^2\\\Rightarrow BC = \sqrt{169}\\\Rightarrow BC = 13\ m[/tex]

Therefore the answer is :

Height of tree = 5+13 = 18 m
