Jill is standing at the base of her apartment building. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of a nearby tower to be 4

0º. Then Jill goes to the roof of her apartment building, directly above her previous position, and measures the angle of elevation to the top of the same tower to be 30°. If the height of the tower is 100 meters, the height of Jill's apartment building is

1) From the measure of 40°, you can write:

tan(40°) = 100/x, where x is the base from the building to the tower

⇒x=100/tan(40°) = 119,18 m

2) From the measure of 30°, you can write

tan(30°) = y / 119,18, where y is the height from the roof of Jill's building to the top of the tower.

Then, y = tan(30°) * 119,18 = 68,81 m

3) The height of Jill's building is 100 - 68,81 = 31,19 m

Answer:

Its 31.2

Step-by-step explanation:

@Edufirst Check Your Work ("," ".")

x = 100/tan 40 = 100/0.8391 = 119.18 meters

y = 119.18 x tan 30 = 68.8 meters

100 - 68.8 = 31.2 meters

A set of notations (SSS, SAS, ASA and RHS) is used to describe/prove that two triangles are conjurent. For each pair of triangle
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are not given but from this definition, you should be able to select the correct statement.

Triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same size and shape. A triangle is made up of six (three sides and three angles) but only three is usually needed to prove triangle congruence. These are:

a) Side - Side - Side (SSS): Two triangles are congruent if the length of their three sides are equal to each other.

b) Side- angle- side (SAS): If two sides and one angle of a triangle is equal to two sides and a angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent to each other.

c) Angle - side - angle (ASA): If two angles and a side of a triangle are equal to a corresponding two angles and a side of another triangle then the two triangles are congruenr.

d) Right angle - hypotenuse - side (RHS): If for two right angled triangles, their hypotenuse and a side (leg) are equal, then the two triangles are congruent.

Suppose x follows a continuous uniform distribution from 1 to 5. determine the conditional probability p(x >2.5 | x ≤ 4).
Rainbow [258]
Because the random variable x follows a continuous uniform distribution from x=1 to x=5, therefore
p(x) = 1/4,  x=[1, 5]
The value of p(x) ensures that the total area under the curve = 1.

The conditional probability p(x > 2.5 | x ≤ 4) is the shaded portion of the curve. Its value is
p(x > 2.5 | x ≤4) = (1/4)*(4 - 2.5) = 0.375

Answer: 0.375
