Please find attached to this answer, a hand drawn diagram

Answer:

12.84°

Explanation:

To calculate Angle of Depression, we calculate using Trigonometric function or ratio. The Trigonometric function or ratio to be used based on the diagram is  Sine

sin θ = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

θ = Angle of Depression

Opposite side = Height  = 200 feet

Adjacent side = Distance of the flying bird to the observer = 900 feet

sin θ = 200feet/ 900 feet

θ = sin-¹ (2/9) or arcsin(2/9)

θ = 12.839588407°

Approximately = 12.84°

Therefore, Angle of Depression = 12.84°

Which sentence from "The World on Turtle's Back" best illustrates why the story is considered a creation myth? The woman created
il63 [147K]

<em>Answer:</em>

The woman placed the dirt on Turtle’s back and performed a ritual to create the earth.

<em>Explanation:</em>

The world on Turtle’s back is a Native American tradition that explains the origins of the Earth. The story surfaces from the legend that the world was created on the back of a giant turtle. The story is considered to be a creation myth because it has the engagement of supernatural powers, that have worked inconsistent with her magic. This is a creation myth because the only thing supporting it is the belief in the story that has been passed down from generation to generation, as a creation story, and this belief gave rise to popular religious beliefs and customs of the Iroquois.
