As the students were approaching the park, they noticed a huge tower that was just
being completed. Lucas and Jacob were part of the group responsible for looking at
advertising. They couldn’t help but to think, one of the main attractions of the park
would be the ride involving this tower. It was a bright, sunny day. As they got off
the bus, they collected the mathematical materials provided by their teacher. These
materials included: pencil, paper, eraser, calculator, measuring tape, a
clinometer (a tool used to measure vertical angles). They walked through the
park until they reached the shadow of the tower. They looked up and couldn’t
believe how high it was
Q: If they are going to advertise, the height of the tower in a brochure that is
being created, they want to be sure of their answer. Describe how they
could use the materials they have and trigonometry to determine the
height of the tower. The explanations should include a detailed diagram,
clear step by step instructions making use of terminology appropriately
and even examples showing the calculations to be used to determine
the height.
The students could use what they know of triangle rectangles, in the image below you can see the diagram that the students could use to estimate the height of the tower.
First, the students could use the measuring tape to find the distance between the base of the tower and them, this distance is represented with the variable S in the image below.
Now, using the clinometer, they could find the elevation angle between their viewpoint and the tip of the tower. This would be the angle θ in the image (notice that they should do this from the ground).
So at this point, we know one angle and the adjacent cathetus to that angle.
And we want to find the height of the tower, which is the opposite cathetus to the known angle.
Then we can remember the trigonometric relation:
tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)
Replacing these by the things we know:
tan(θ) = H/S
tan(θ)*S = H
Then, by measuring θ and S, we can find the height.

The polygon in each pair are similar. Find the missing side length
Answer:
45 / 27 = 30 / 18 = x / 24
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
The question here states that the two polygons are similar
Polygons that are similar have similar side length ratios.
If we want to find a side length we must create a proportional relationship
We are already given a partial proportional relationship.
Which is...
45 / __ = __ / 18 = x / __
First let's fill in the blanks
The side that is corresponding to the side with a length of 45 has a length of 27. So it would be 45/27
The side that is corresponding to the side with a length of 18 has a length of 30. So it would be 30/18
The side corresponding to side labeled "x" has a length of 24. so it would be x/24
So we would have
45 / 27 = 30 / 18 = x / 24
Now let's find x
We only need 2 ratios ( the one including x of course, and the other one can either be 30/18 or 45/27)
30 / 18 = x / 24
Now let's solve for x
Cross multiply
30*24=720
18*x=18x
We now have 18x = 720
Divide both sides by 18
18x / 18 = x
720 / 18 = 40
x = 40
To check our answers we can see if the ratios are similar
If they are then we are correct
45/27 = 1.66
30/18 =1.66
40/24 = 1.66
They are all equivalent meaning that our answers are correct

solve for the variable. *show your work*
Step-by-step explanation: Notice that we have a 30° angle and we're given that the side opposite the 30° angle has a length of h and the side adjacent to the 30° angle has a length of 18.
Remember than [tex]tan =[/tex] [tex]\frac{opp}{adj}[/tex] so we can setup the equation tan 30° = h/18.
Solving for h, we multiply both sides of the
equation by 18 and we have (18)(tan 30°) = h.
From here, we enter this into our calculator to get 10.3923 or 10.4.
Instead of using trigonometry here, we could have also noticed that this is a special right triangle, a 30° - 60° - 90° triangle, which means that the long leg is √3 times the length of the short leg, so we could have setup an equation to find the value of h. Either way should be acceptable.

Need help ASAP 3(9+9b)=69+136
Answer:
b=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
b = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(9+9b)=69+136
27+27b = 205
27b = 205-27
27b = 178
b = 178/27
*slaps face*
In the comments you said the "136" is "13b" so ok...
3(9+9b)=69+13b
27+27b = 69 + 13b
27+14b = 69
14b = 69-27
14b = 42
b = 3
The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Find the
i)value of x
ii) area
iii)cost of weeding the plot at GHc 0.24 per m²
Answer:
P.=2(2x+5)+2(x-10)=80cm
6x-10=80
x=90/6=15cm
Area= L*W= 35*5=175 squared cm= 0.0175 squared m
Cost= 0.24 * 0.0175 = GHc 0.0042
A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. The cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.
What is a rectangle?That parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.
A.) The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Therefore, we can write,
Perimeter of the rectangel = 2(L+W)
80 = 2[(2x+5)+(x-10)]
80/2 = 2x+5+x-10
40 = 3x -5
40+5 = 3x
x = 15
Hence, the value of x is 15.
B.) The length of the rectangle = (2x+5) = 2(15)+5 = 35 cm = 0.35 m
The width of the rectangle = (x-10) = 15-10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Now, the area of the rectangle = L×B = 0.35m × 0.05m = 0.0175m²
C.) Given the cost of weeding 1m² is 0.24, therefore, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is
Cost = 0.0175 × 0.24 = 0.0042 GHc
Hence, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.

find the slope and Y_intercept of the line 3x+y-9=0
Answer:
slope: -3
y-intercept: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope and y-intercept, we can manipulate the equation to slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
[tex]3x+y-9=0[/tex] [subtract both sides by 3x]
[tex]y-9=-3x[/tex] [add both sides by 9]
[tex]y=-3x+9[/tex]
Now, our equation is in slope-intercept form. We can see that the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 9.
The equation a[tex]x^{2}[/tex]+b[tex]x[/tex]+c=0 has roots α, β. Express (α+1)(β+1) in terms of a, b and c.
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle \left(\alpha+1\right)\left(\beta + 1\right) = \frac{a+c-b}{a}\:\: \left(\text{ or } 1+\frac{c-b}{a}\right)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation:
[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]
Which has roots α and β.
And we want to express (α + 1)(β + 1) in terms of a, b, and c.
From the quadratic formula, we know that the two solutions to our equation are:
[tex]\displaystyle x_1 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\text{ and } x_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Let x₁ = α and x₂ = β. Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle \left(\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} + 1\right) \left(\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}+1\right)[/tex]
Combine fractions:
[tex]\displaystyle =\left(\frac{-b+2a+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \right) \left(\frac{-b+2a-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\right)[/tex]
Rewrite:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{\left(-b+2a+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\right)\left(-b+2a-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\right)}{(2a)(2a)}[/tex]
Multiply and group:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{((-b+2a)+\sqrt{b^2-4ac})((-b+2a)-\sqrt{b^2-4ac})}{4a^2}[/tex]
Difference of two squares:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{\overbrace{(-b+2a)^2 - (\sqrt{b^2-4ac})^2}^{(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2}}{4a^2}[/tex]
Expand and simplify:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{(b^2-4ab+4a^2)-(b^2-4ac)}{4a^2}[/tex]
Distribute:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{(b^2-4ab+4a^2)+(-b^2+4ac)}{4a^2}[/tex]
Cancel like terms:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{4a^2+4ac-4ab}{4a^2}[/tex]
Factor:
[tex]\displaystyle =\frac{4a(a+c-b)}{4a(a)}[/tex]
Cancel. Hence:
[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{a+c-b}{a}\:\: \left(\text{ or } 1+\frac{c-b}{a}\right)[/tex]
Therefore:
