Two​ fire-lookout stations are 100 miles ​apart, with station A directly south of station B. Both stations spot a fire. The bearing of the fire from station A is Upper N 55 degrees Upper EN55°E and the bearing of the fire from station B is Upper S 60 degrees E.S60°E. How​ far, to the nearest tenth of a​ mile, is the fire from each lookout​ station?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance from station A to the fire is 90.4 miles

The distance from station B to the fire is 95.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 2 fire stations are 100 miles apart.

Station A = N 55°E

Station B = S 60°E

To find the distance of the fire from each station, let's use the law of sines,

From the diagram, our values are:

A = 55°

B =  60°

Let's take C as point of fire.

Since the total sum of angle in a triangle is 180,

A+B+C=180

C = 180 - A - B

C = 180 - 55 - 60 = 65°

For station A.

[tex] \frac{Sin A}{a} = \frac{Sin C}{c} [/tex]

[tex]\frac{Sin55}{a} = \frac{Sin65}{100}[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{Sin55 * 100}{Sin65}[/tex]

[tex]a = 90.38[/tex]

The distance from station A to the fire is 90.4 miles

For station B:

[tex] \frac{Sin B}{b} = \frac{Sin C}{c} [/tex]

[tex]\frac{Sin60}{b} = \frac{Sin65}{100}[/tex]

Solving for b, we have:

[tex]a = \frac{Sin60 * 100}{Sin65}[/tex]

[tex]a = 95.6[/tex]

The distance from station B to the fire is 95.6 miles

Hope it will help you

Good luck on your assignment

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve according to PEMDAS. Perform the operation inside the parentheses first, then evaluate exponents, multiply, divide, add and subtract.

(3-5)^4(2)-16/2

First, perform the operation inside the parentheses. Subtract 5 from 3.

(-2)^4 (2) -16/2

Next, evaluate the exponent. -2^4 is the same as multiplying -2, 4 times.

-2*-2*-2*-2=16

So, -2^4 is equal to 16

16(2)-16/2

Multiply 16 and 2.

32-16/2

Divide 16 by 2

32-8

Subtract 8 from 32

In ΔLMN, the measure of ∠N=90°, ML = 97, NM = 65, and LN = 72. What ratio represents the tangent of ∠L?

Answers

Answer:

The tangent of ∠L represents the ratio between side NM and side LN.

The value of this tangent is 0.9028

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle ∠N is 90°, so we have a right triangle. In a right triangle, the tangent of an angle represents the ratio between the opposite side of that angle and the adjacent side (the cathetus, not the hypotenusa) of that angle.

So, in the triangle LMN, the opposite side to the angle ∠L is NM, and the adjacent side is LN (ML is the hypotenusa, because it is the bigger side). The value of this tangent is:

tan(L) = NM / LN = 65 / 72 = 0.9028

65/72

c) 9 cm^2

d) 60.39 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the the length is 12 cm and the width is 6 cm. Area = lw

A=(12)(6)

A=72 cm^2

b) base equals 3 cm

Height equals 6 cm

A=1/2(3)(6)

A= 9 cm^2

c) base = 3 cm

height=6 cm

Area=1/2(3)(6)

A=9 cm^2

d) to to find the area of the parallelogram, You need to use Pythagorean theorem for one of the triangles.

3^2 + 6^2 = x^2

9 + 36 = x^2

45=x^2

✓45 = ✓x^2

x = 6.71 cm

A model airplane is built at a scale of 1 inch to 6 feet. If the model plane is 8 inches long, how many feet long is the actual airplane?

Type your answer as a whole number in the box below.

_____ feet

Answers

The airplane is 48 feet long in real dimensions.

To find out how long the airplane actually is, we can use the scale and input our amount of inches that it is measured by.

So, 1 inch equals to 6 feet.

Our model plane is 8 inches.

Now, we plug it in.

8 inches = 6(8)

8 inches = 48 feet

Therefore, the length of the real airplane is 48 feet.

48 feet

Answer:

48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create a proportion using the following setup.

inches/feet=inches/feet

We know the scale is 1 inch to 6 feet. We also know that the plane is 8 inches long, but we don't know how many feet long it is, so we can say x feet.

1 inch/6 feet= 8 inches/ x feet

1/6=8/x

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second. Multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second.

1*x=6*8

x=6*8

x=48

Add appropriate units, in this case: feet.

x= 48 feet

The actual airplane is 48 feet long.
