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.

The domain of a function can be represented by which one of the following
options?
A. a set of F(x) values
B. a set of both input and output values
C. a set of input values
D. a set of output values

Answers

Answer:  C. a set of input values

The domain is the set of allowed x values, aka input values.

With fairly many domain problems, one thing to look out for are things like potential division by zero issues. For example, if you had the function f(x) = 2/(x-3), then we want to avoid the denominator x-3 from being zero. Because x = 3 makes x-3 equal to zero, this means we must kick x = 3 out of the domain; however, any other real number will work. This example function therefore has the domain of any real number but 3.

Square roots are another thing that often comes up with domain problems. One example could be g(x) = sqrt(x+5). We'd want the x+5 to never be negative. Solving [tex]x+5 \ge 0[/tex] leads to [tex]x \ge -5[/tex] to tell us what set of input x values we can plug in: namely anything -5 or larger.

Other types of domain problems can occur, but those two types are most common in my experience.

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 9 cm and the other leg measures 2 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For right triangle, if you know 2 sides, you can find the third using pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. 'a' and 'b' are the lengths of the legs, while 'c' is the hypotenuse. You can plug in what you know into this formula:

9^2 + 2^2 = c^2

81+4 = c^2

c = √85, or approximately 9.2

Answer:

b = 19.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

20^2+ b^2 = 28^2  

400 + b^2 = 784

b^2 = 784-400

b^2 =384

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt( b^2) = sqrt(384)

b =19.59591794

To the nearest tenth

b = 19.6

Answer:

19.6

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a right triangle so use the pythagorean theorem; a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a=20

b=?

c=28 - c is the hypotenuse because it is across from the right angle

20^2 + b^2 = 28^2

400+ b^2 =784

b^2=384

b= 19.595917... or 19.6 (rounded to nearest tenth)

Hi,

we need to substitute 4 and 1 in the equation, so for every y, we replace it with a 1 and every X with 4 as X= 4, Y = 1

equation: X + X (X + Y) + Y

equation after substituting the numbers: 1 + 1 (1 + 4) + 1

Bidmas rules apply.

expand the bracket first. 1 (1 + 4)=

1 X 1= 1

1 X 4= 4

1 + 4 = 5

then the equation becomes: 1 + 5 + 1= 7

your answer is 7 if you want to evaluate it.

your answer is 1 + 1 (1 + 4) + 1 if you need the equation.

, hope that helps :)

Answers

Answer:

-2

(0, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Giveb the function :

F(x) = 3^x + 1 – 2

To obtain the asymptote, take the limit of f(x) as x as tends to ∞

3^(∞+1) - 2 = 0 - 2

Hence,

y = 0 - 2.

y = - 2

The y intercept, this is the value of y when x = 0

Hence, put x = 0

F(0) = 3^(0 + 1) – 2

f(0) = 3^1 - 2

f(0) = 3 - 2

f(0) = 1

Y - intercept = (0, 1)
