A surveyor at point S locates a tree 200 meters away, at point T. The surveyor turns 120 degrees counterclockwise and locates a rock formation 150 meters away, at point R. Find the distance between the tree and the rock formation.

This will require using the law of cosines.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

190

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The distance between the tree and the rock formation is approximately 304.14 meters.

To find the distance between the tree (point T) and the rock formation (point R), we can use the law of cosines. The law of cosines relates the lengths of the sides of a triangle to the cosine of one of its angles.

Let's denote the unknown distance between the tree and the rock formation as 'd.'

We have a triangle with sides of lengths 200 meters (side ST), 150 meters (side SR), and d meters (side TR). The angle opposite side ST is 120 degrees.

According to the law of cosines:

d² = 200² + 150² - 2 * 200 * 150 * cos(120°)

Now, we can calculate this expression to find the value of d:

d² = 40000 + 22500 - 60000 * cos(120°)

Using the value of cos(120°) ≈ -0.5, we have:

d² = 40000 + 22500 - 60000 * (-0.5)

d² = 40000 + 22500 + 30000

d² = 92500

Taking the square root of both sides to solve for d:

d = √92500

d ≈ 304.14

Therefore, the distance between the tree and the rock formation is approximately 304.14 meters.

Tres hermanos van a repartirse un pastel y medio, cuanto le toco de pastel a cada uno de los hermnos

Answers

Answer:

medio pastel cada uno

Step-by-step explanation:

Hay 3 hermanos, si decimos que un pastel entero tiene 6 pedazos entonces su fraccion seria 6/6. Si dividimos este pastel entre los tres hermanos cada uno tendria...

[tex]\frac{6 / 3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]

Medio pastel seria la mitad de 6/6 que seria 3/6. Si dividimos esto entre los 3 hermanos cada uno tendria...

[tex]\frac{3 / 3}{6} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Ahora que dividimos los 2 pasteles tenemos que unir las fracciones para saber cuanto pastel le toco a cada hermano...

[tex]\frac{2}{6} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]  o medio pastel cada uno

. Chris read 25 books in 135 days. At this rate, in how many days will he read another 5 books? Another 10 books?

Answers

Answer:

5 books - 27 days

10 - 54 days

15 books - 81 days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find how many days it takes to read one book, to do this, simply divide 135 by 25 (135/5=5.4). Then, you multiply that number by the amount of books it wants to know how long it would take him to read (5 and 15 since it asks "another 10". It could also be 54 if it was asking how many for 10 books not including the 5 he would have read). 5*5.4=27, 10*5.4=54, and 15*5.4=81.

If = 58° and m = 120 in, what is the value of p to the nearest tenth of an inch?

Answers

Answer:

141.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 58 = m/p = 120/p

120 = psin58

120/sin 58 = p

p = 141.5 in.

Another way to look at this problem is to remember that the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the longest side.  Since 141.5 is the only answer greater than 120, it would have to be the logical choice for the length of p

The peak at transfer camera is 10 8.7 he travels 7.5 metre in car and took a break how much more he has to travel to reach the top of the mountain

Answers

The question is not well formatted

Let's assume that the peak value Given is 108.7m

However, If that is not the actual value, then you can just follow the steps with the actual value to obtain your answer.

Answer:

101.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the peak Given as 108.7 m

The distance traveled by car = 7. 5 meters

The distance left to reach the top of the mountain :

108.7 meters - 7.5 meters

= 101.2 meters

The base and corresponding height of a parallelogram are 75 cm and 25 cm. If the other base is 50 cm, find out its corresponding height.

Answers

Answer:

Height of the parallelogram = 37.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Base of a parallelogram = 75 cm

Height of a parallelogram = 25 cm

As,

we know that

Area = Base × Height

        = 75 × 25

        = 1875 cm²

As the parallelogram is same

So, Area = Base × Height

1875 = 50 × Height

⇒ Height = [tex]\frac{1875}{50}[/tex] = 37.5 cm

So, we get

Height of the parallelogram = 37.5 cm

Given the simultaneous equation

2x-y = 4

3x+y = 6

Add both equation

2x+3x = 4 + 6

5x = 10

x = 10/5

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into equation 1

From1 ;

2x-y = 4

2(2) - y = 4

4 - y = 4

y = 4-4

y = 0

n = 7 and the first term is 1.  So,

[tex]a_{7} = 1(2^{7 - 1} ) = 2^{6} = 64[/tex]

Seventh term is 64
