Un globo busca aterrizar en medio de dos ciudades A y B, cuya distancia entre si es de 200 km. Si se mide el ángulo de elevación

desde cada casa hasta el punto C en el que se ubica el globo en un instante dado, se obtienen 27° y 36° . ¿Cuál es la altura aproximada del globo?

Answer:

h \approx 59.898\,km

Step-by-step explanation:

El diagrama trigonométrico que representa el enunciado es incluido abajo como adjunto. Las siguientes relaciones trigonométricas describen la localización del globo. (The trigonometric diagram representing the statement is included below as attachment. The following trigonometric relations describes the location of the balloon):

\tan 27^{\circ} = \frac{h}{x}

\tan 36^{\circ} = \frac{h}{200-x}

A continuación, se obtiene la distancia horizontal: (The horizontal distance is obtained hereafter):

x \cdot \tan 27^{\circ} = (200-x)\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}

x \cdot (\tan 27^{\circ} + \tan 36^{\circ})= 200\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}

x = \frac{200\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}}{\tan 27^{\circ}+ \tan 36^{\circ}}

x \approx 117.557\,km

La altura aproximada del globo es (The approximated height of the globe is):

h = x\cdot \tan 27^{\circ}

h \approx 59.898\,km

To solve this problem you must follow the proccedure shown below:

 1. Amount of lemonade in pints:

 1 <span>quart of water=2 pints
 1 pint of lemon
 (9  ounces of honey)(0.0625 pints/1 ounce)=0.56 pints

 Total in pints=2 pints+1 pint+0.56 pints

A repairman charges $18 per hour to repair appliances plus $0.27 per mile to drive to the house and back. It took the repairman
ivolga24 [154]

Answer: The charge was right.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he charged $18 per hour, it means he charged $18 for 60 minutes. He worked for 2 hours 15 minutes which is (60 ×2) + 15 = 135 minutes. For 135 mins, (135 ×18)÷ 60 = 40.5.

He drove 21 miles to his house and 21 miles back. That is 21×2= 42. And for $0.27 = $11.34.

Adding the costs, 40.5 + 11.34 = $51.84

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue. The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 16o when staring at the top of the sta
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The height of the statue is 21.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue

The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 16 degree when staring at the top of the statue

hen the person looks down at an angle of depression of 8 degree when staring at the base of the statue

Firstly, we will draw diagram

In triangle ABF:

FC=50

we can use trig formula

tan(16)=\frac{y}{50}

y=50tan(16)

y=14.33727ft

now, we can find x

In triangle DEF:

we can use trig formula

tan(8)=\frac{x}{50}

x=50tan(8)

x=7.0270ft

we can see that

height of statue =x+y

so, the height of statue is

=14.33727+7.0270

=21.4ft

At a red-tag sale, all items with red tags have been marked down by 49%. What should be the sale price of a DVD player having a
vampirchik [111]
Original price was $234.95
49% marked down = $234.95 *49 / 100 = $115.13

So now the sale price = original price - price of 49% marked down

sale price = $234.95 - $115.13 = $119.82

Answer: sale price of a DVD player having a red tag marked down by 49% should be $119.82
