In the given question, it is given that  ramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet.

And we have to find the value of tan B.

And tangent of any angle is equal to the ratio of vertical by horizontal. That is:

tanB=8/15

And that's the required missing ratio for tan B.

A 32 foot ladder is leaning against a building and forms a 29.37 angle with the ground how far away from the building is the bas
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

the base of the ladder is 27.89  ft away from the building

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that this situation can be represented with a right angle triangle. The right angle being that made between the ground and the building, the ladder (32 ft long) being the hypotenuse of the triangle, the acute angle of 29.37^o being adjacent to the unknown side we are asked about (x). So, we can use the cosine function  to solve this:

cos(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} \\cos(29.37^o)=\frac{x}{32\,\,ft}\\32 \,\,cos(29.37^o)\,\,ft=x\\x=27.887\,\,ft

which rounded to the nearest hundredth gives;

x = 27.89  ft

 because 16 times 12 is 192 
if every tile is 2 feet divide 192 by 2 
you should get 96 meaning there are 96 tiles
then take 96 and multiply by it by .84 because every tile is 84 cents 
you then get 80.64

Which is the endpoint of a ray?<br><br> point R<br> point S<br> point T<br> point U
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

point S

Step-by-step explanation:

The end point of each ray given is point S, as the definition of the ray states that there is only one end point, and the other continues indefinitely. Technically, if you use all the others as a start point, they also work as rays, but because S is the start point of all lines, S is the safer answer.

Which of the following predictions can be calculated using a geometric distribution?
snow_lady [41]

Answer: C

both a and b

Step-by-step explanation:

Both options A and B deals with the number of trials required for a single success. Thus, they are negative binomial distribution where the number of successes (r) is equal to 1.

The geometric distribution is a special case of the negative binomial  distribution that deals with the number of trials required for a single success.
