A bird flying at an altitude of 50 feet spies a worm in the ground up ahead. How far must the bird travel to the worm if the angle of depression from the bird to the worm is 56°?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

33.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Trigonometric function of Tangent

tan θ = opposite/adjacent

θ = 56°

Opposite = 50 ft

Adjacent = x

Cross Multiply

tan 56 = 50 ft/x

Cross Mulitiply

tan 56 × x = 50ft

x = 50ft/tan 56

x = 33.725425842 ft

Approximately = 33.7 ft

The bird must travel 33.7 ft to meet the worm

Each card in a set of cards has one of the letters from the word MATHEMATICS. The cards are shuffled. Suppose you draw a card from the set of cards, record the letter, return the card to the set, and shuffle the cards. You repeat this experiment 22 times. Would you expect the experimental probability of drawing a vowel to be the same as the theoretical probability? YES or NO and Explain you answer

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability is the expected probability of anything. For example we expect a probability of 1/6 for each number when we roll a die .

Experimental Probability is the one that is obtained by the actual experimenting of rolling the die.

The theoretical probability is the example of perfect probability and experimental probability  is the example of actual occurrence.

Their formulas are

Theoretical Probability = number of possible outcomes/ total number of possible outcomes

Experimental Probability =  number of favorable outcomes/ total number of actual outcomes

If we a roll a fair die several times we may get 2 repeated number of times or any other number that is on the die.

So the experimental probability is bit different from the theoretical probability.

Now if the cards are shuffled and the experiment is repeated 22 times

experimental probability of drawing a vowel  would not  be the same as the theoretical probability because n is small.

If n→1000 or more

n→∞

According to K. Pearson or Buffon when n tends to infinity the  theoretical probability becomes equal to experimental probability.

They experimented this on a coin and put forward their results.

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x\approx 63.7}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle. We know this because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree/right angle. Therefore, we can use the right triangle trigonometry ratios.

sinθ= opposite/hypotensue cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacent

We are given angle A which measures 37 degrees.

Side BC which measures 48 is opposite angle A and the unknown side, x, is next to or adjacent to angle A.

We should use tangent.

[tex]tan \theta= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}}[/tex]

[tex]tan37= \frac {48}{x}[/tex]

Since we are solving for x, we must isolate the variable. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and the second denominator, then the first denominator and second numerator.

[tex]\frac {tan37}{1}=\frac {48}{x}[/tex]

[tex]tan37*x=48*1[/tex]

[tex]tan37*x= 48[/tex]

x is being multiplied by the tangent of 37. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by the tangent of 37.

[tex]\frac {tan37 *x}{tan37}=\frac{48}{tan37}[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{48}{0.7535540501}}[/tex]

[tex]x=63.69815144[/tex]

Even though it is not specified, let's round to the nearest tenths place. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7.

B) 16.8 in

C) 18.2 in

D) 20.1 in

Answers

See the diagram of the circumscribed polygon attached below:

Answer:

A. 14.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 3.7 + 3.6 + 3.4 + 1.9 + g

Let's find g.

a = 1.9 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point of a circle are congruent)

b = 3.4 - 1.9 = 1.5 in.

b = c = 1.5 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

d = 3.6 - 1.5 = 2.1 in.

d = e = 2.1 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

f = 3.7 - 2.1 = 1.6 in.

f = g = 1.6 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

✔️Therefore,

Perimeter = 3.7 + 3.6 + 3.4 + 1.9 + 1.6 = 14.2 in.

QU | RT. Find TU.
Help plz...No links!! I will report!!

Answers

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Triangle Proportionality Theorem

This states that:

TU : TS = QR : RS

TU/TS = QR/RS

TU = ?

TS= 17

RS = 13

QR = 26

Hence,

TU/7 = 26/13

Cross Multiply

13 × TU = 17 × 26

TU = 17 × 26/13

TU = 17 × 2

TU = 34

Therefore, TU = 14

About 30 more people will choose brand C.

About 30 more people will choose brand A than brand B.

About 100 more people will choose brand A.

Answers

Answer: About 100 more people will choose brand A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people who chose brand A = 25

Number of people who chose brand B = 15

Number of people who chose brand C = 10

Total number of people = 25+10+15 = 50

Since there are 200 people left, we'll equate them based on the data given and this will be:

For A = 25/50 × 200 = 100

For B = 15/50 × 200 = 60

For C = 10/50 × 200 = 40

Therefore, about 100 more people will choose brand A.

Write the two equations to solve the system first. Use s for senior

citizens and use c for child. Show all work using the method you prefer.

Equations:

Answers

Answer:

12s + 5c = 125

5s + 5c = 85

price of senior citizen ticket = $5.71

price of a child's ticket = $11.29

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using simultaneous equation

12s + 5c = 125 equation 1

5s + 5c = 85 equation 2

subtract equation 1 from 1

7s == 40

s = 40/7 = 5.71

Substitute for s in equation 1

12(5.71) + 5c = 125

68.57 + 5c = 125

5c = 125 - 68.57

5c = 56.43

c =11.29

I’m not sure how to solve, what do I need to do??

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's helpful to draw it out, but you need a calculator for this.

You have the values of line b, line c, and angle C.

You can use sinC / c since you have C and c.

Solve for sinB by doing sinB/5.7 = sinC/8.6

you'll get the value of sinB, use inverse trig to solve for B (sin^-1)

Then you'll have the angle values for C and B. Add them, and subtract by 180 to find the angle measure of A.

Use the steps above to find a:

sinA (which u just found) / a = sinC (125) / c (8.6)

If a vector V is in standard position and the tip of the vector corresponds to the point (a, b), then we can write the vector in component form as

Component of V

From the question, we understand that V is in standard position.

This implies that V starts at the origin (0,0) and ends at (a,b)

So, vector V is:
