Answer:
0.67 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram illustrating the question is shown in the attach photo.
In triangle DCA,
Opposite = H
Adjacent = b
Angel θ = 27°
Tan θ = Opp /Adj
Tan 27° = H/b
Cross multiply
H = b x Tan 27°... (1)
From triangle DSA,
The diagram illustrating the question is shown in attach photo.
In triangle DCA,
Opposite = H
Adjacent = 2.3 – b
Angel θ = 34°
Tan θ = Opp /Adj
Tan 34° = H/ 2.3 – b
Cross multiply
H = Tan 34° (2.3 – b) .. (2)
Equating equation (1) and (2)
b x Tan 27° = Tan 34° (2.3 – b)
0.5095b = 0.6745(2.3 – b)
0.5095b = 1.55135 – 0.6745b
Collect like terms
0.5095b + 0.6745b = 1.55135
1.184b = 1.55135
Divide both side by 1.184
b = 1.55135/1.184
b = 1.31 mi
Substitute the value of b into any of the equation to obtain the height (H). In this case we shall use equation 1.
H = b x Tan 27°
H = 1.31 x Tan 27°
H = 0.67 mi
Therefore, the height of the drone is 0.67 mi
Answer:
$1340.49
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached image
Subtotal Cost of Purchased Items
Since the builder receives a 20% contractor's discount, plus and additional 3% for paying in full within 30 days.
Discount = 23% of $1658 = 0.23 X 1658 =$381.34
Total (Less Discount) = 1658-381.34 = $1276.66
Tax on building materials is 5%.
Therefore:
Tax = 5% of $1276.66=0.05 X 1276.66
Tax=$63.83
Therefore, the total bill:
=$1276.66+63.83
Grand Total =$1340.49
