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.

Answers

Answer 1

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.

Tan X = 14/48 = 7/24

Answered by GAUTHMATH

Answer:

7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

tan(x) is the ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg. The opposite leg of x's measure is 14, and the adjacent leg to x has a measure of 48. (It's not 50 since 50 is opposite the right angle, meaning that it's the hypotenuse.)

14 / 48 = 7 / 24. Simplest form is 7/24.

Answers

Answer: 17/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Change all of the fractions to have a common denominator:

LCM of 10, 12, 15 is 60

You get 12/60, 25/60, and 54/60.

54/60 is what he had at the start, and so you can just subtract what he gave away

54/60-12/60=42/60

42/60-25/60=17/60

17 is a prime number so you cannot simplify the fraction

Answer:

17/60

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the LCM of 10, 12, and 5, which is 60.

He started with 54/60.

He gave away 12/60, leaving 42/60.

He gave away another 25/60, leaving 17/60.

He had 17/60 of a pizza left over.

What is comparison of two numbers?

Comparison of numbers defines the similar properties between two numbers, and the number is larger than, smaller than or equal to another number.

What is "how much larger" in math?

In Math " how much larger " indicates that we have to find the difference. So, we subtract the smaller value from the larger value.

According to the given question

We have number 9966004321

1 billion = 1,000,000,000

So, for finding how much 9966004321 is larger than 1 billion we will subtract 1 billion from 9966004321.

Therefore,

9966004321 - 1,000,000,000 = 9,866,004,321

Hence, 9966004321 is larger than 1 billion by 9,866,004,321.

Answers

Answer:

The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis. Keep in mind that if the graph continues beyond the portion of the graph we can see, the domain and range may be greater than the visible values.

Step-by-step explanation;

The range of a function is the set of y-coordinates of all the points int he graph of the function.

Look at the graph. The vertex is point (2, -3).

The graph does not go lower than that point.

The lowest y-coordinate is -3.

The graph goes up forever on both sides until infinity.

The range is all numbers greater than or equal to -3.
