A power failure on the bridge of a Great Lakes freighter has resulted in the ship's navigator having to do her own calculations. She measures the angle between the ship's course and a lighthouse on shore as 32°. After the ship has travelled 1500 m, she measures the angle to be 72°. Determine if the ship was closer to or farther from the lighthouse at the second sighting, and by what distance. (4 marks)


It is impossible to measure the length of a particular swamp directly. Kendra put a stake in the ground and measured from the stake to opposite ends of the swamp, the results being 410 m and 805 m. She measured the angle between the distances to be 57°. What is the length of the swamp? (4 marks)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1) The ship is closer

2) 675.73 m

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

The initial angle between the ship's course and the lighthouse = 32°

The final angle between the ship's course and the lighthouse = 72°

The distance traveled by the sip between he two positions = 1500 m

Therefore we have a triangle formed between the distance covered by the ship and the two distances of the ship from the lighthouse, a and b

Where;

a = The initial distance fro the lighthouse

b = The final distance fro the lighthouse

The angles of the triangle are

32°, (180 - 72) = 108° and 180 - 32 - 108 = 40°

By sine rule we have;

1500/(sin(40)) = a/(sin(108)) = b/(sin(32)) =

Therefore, a = sin(108°) × 1500/(sin(40°)) = 2219.37 m

b = (sin(32°)) × 1500/(sin(40°)) = 1236.61 m

Therefore, a  > b

The initial distance fro the lighthouse > The final distance fro the lighthouse, which shows that the ship is closer

2) By cosine rule we have

a² = b² + c² - 2× b×c×cos(A)

Where the given measurements by Kendra are;

410 m and 805 m with an included (in between) angle of 57°, we have;

Let b = 410 m, c = 805 m, and A  = 57°, we have;

a² = 410^2 + 805^2 - 2× 410×805×cos(57 degrees) = 456608.77 m²

a = The length of the stream = 675.73 m.

Answers

Answer:  d) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line passing through (a,b) and (c,d):

[tex](y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)[/tex]

Equation of a line passing through (2, 18) and (–3, 8):

[tex](y-18)=\dfrac{8-18}{-3-2}(x-2)\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-18)=\dfrac{-10}{-5}(x-2)\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-18)=2(x-2)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-18=2x-4\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2x-4+18\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2x+14[/tex]

Comparing resulting equation [tex]y=2x+14[/tex] to [tex]y = m x + b[/tex], we get value of b= 14.

Hence, correct option is d) 14

The size of a television screen is given as 95 cm, correct to the nearest 5 cm.
Write down the upper bound of the size of the television screen.

Answers

Answer:

U B = 100.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the upper bound of the size of the television screen= 95.5 since it is corrected to the nearest 5 then the U B =100.5 cm

The upper bound of the size of the television screen is 100.5 cm

The conversion of the size of the television screen to the nearest 5cm from the initial size of 95 cm is = 100 cm.

Now, the upper bound of the size of the television screen which is 100 is can be determined by the addition of a half value to 100 cm:

i.e.

= (1/2) + 100 cm

= 0.5 + 100 cm

= 100.5 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the upper bound of the size of the television screen is 100.5 cm

Convert the cotangent to cosine over sine:

In right triangle ΔABC (m∠C = 90°), point P is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the acute angles. The distance from P to the hypotenuse is equal to 4 in. Find the perimeter of △ABC if AB = 12 in.

Answers

Answer:

the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that intersection point of the angle bisectors refers to the incenter of the triangle,.

Given tmthe radius of 4inch for the centre of the incircle.

One of the properties of the incircle is that the distances (d) from vertex C to the nearest touchpoints are equal and have the value

In an incircle , the distances (d) along vertex C and touchpoints have equal value and can be expressed as

d = 1/2(a +b -c)

And a, b, c represent lengths of the sides

We were given the hypotenuse (c) as 12 in, with the radius of 4inch for the

distance from the right-angle vertex C to the incircle touchpoints .

We can determine the sum a+b as

4 = (1/2)(a+b -12) .

4/(1/2)= (a+b -12)

8= (a+b -12)

20=a+b

Which is the addition of length of the two legs of the triangle.

We can determine the perimeter which is the addition of the leg lengths as well as the hypotenuse length.

perimeter = 20 in + 12 in = 32 in

Therefore, the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in

Answers

Answer:

hey here is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Subject of the formula:

It is a variable which is expressed in terms of other variables involved in the formula.

Formulas are written so that a single variable, the subject of the formula is on the L.H.S. of the equation. Everything else goes on the right side of the equation. We evaluate the formula by substituting for the literal numbers on the right hand side.

For example:

In the formula v = u + at, v is the subject.

To find v in the example, we substitute the values u, a and t in the R.H.S. of the equation.

Changing the subject of the formula:

To change the subject of a formula, begin with the variable to become the new subject, and apply inverse operation as for solving equations in the opposite order to the order conventions.  

1. To make ‘u’ the subject of the formula in v = u + at,  

  [subtract at from both sides]

v - at = u

or, u = v - at

2. To make ‘t’ the subject of the formula, v = u + at,

 [subtract u from both sides]

v - u = at

or, (v - u )/a = t

or, t = (v - u)/a

Change the Subject of a Formula

The value of the equation is v = 96 when u = 6 and t = 9

What is an Equation?

So our set of numbers is  5,8,b,9,4 . And we know the average is 7. So first, you have to add all the numbers in the set : 5+8+9+4 which gives you 26. We also know that to get the average of a set of numbers you have to add all the numbers and divide that sum by the how many numbers you have, in thsi case we have 5 numbers including b . So our equation now is : 26+b÷5=7. And if you plug in 9 for b you get 26+9÷5=7 and 26+9÷5  does equal 7 so therefore A is your answer

Flight time from Houston to Orlando is 2 hours to 20 minutes. I arrived at Orlando at 4:15 pm. What time did I set of ?

Answers

Answer:

1:55 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you arrive at 4: 15 pm in Orlando after a 2 hr and 20 minute flight from Houston.  So, lets start with the easy part: let's subtract the 2 hrs part.  

2 hrs earlier from 4:15 pm is 2:15 pm.

Then, you have to subtract the 20 minutes.  Well, it's quite obvious that if you left at 2:00 pm, that would be a total of 2 hrs and 15 minutes.  Just subtract the 15 minutes from the 2:15 pm.  However, it's 20 minutes, not 15, so you have to still subtract that last five minutes.  

So, 2:00 pm minus 5 minutes would equal 1:55 pm.

Answer: 1:55 pm

Explanation:

X + 2hr 20min = 4hr 15min
X = 4hr 15min - 2hr 20 min
X = 1hr 55 min

Or X = 1:55 pm

[tex]5x-10=\frac{1}{2}(178-8x)[/tex] Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction and get:

2(5x - 10) = 178 - 8x which of course simplifies to

10x - 20 = 178 - 8x. Now add 8x to both sides and at the same time add 20 to both sides to get:

18x = 198 so

x = 11. Now we can find the measure of arcHF:

arcHF is 8x + 17, so arcHF is 8(11) + 17 which is 105°.

arcEH + arcHF = arcEHF so

195 + 105 = arcEHF so

arcEHF = 300°

Answer:

Option C. P = 3/q

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question, do the following:

Let us assume a certain number for P say 2 and 3, and then, find the corresponding value for q in each case to see which will give a decreased value for q.

Option A

When P = 2, q =.?

P = 3q

2 = 3q

Divide both side by 3

q = 2/3

When P = 3, q =.?

P = 3q

3 = 3q

Divide both side 3

q = 3/3

q = 1

From the above illustration, we can see that as P increase, q also increase.

Option B

When P = 2, q =.?

P – 3 = q

2 – 3 = q

q = – 1

When P = 3, q =.?

P – 3 = q

3 – 3 = q

q = 0

From the above illustration, we can see that as P increase, q also increase.

Option C

When P = 2, q =.?

P = 3/q

2 = 3/q

Cross multiply

2 × q = 3

Divide both side by 2

q = 3/2

q = 1.5

When P = 3, q =.?

P = 3/q

3 = 3/q

Cross multiply

3 × q = 3

Divide both side by 3

q = 3/3

q = 1

From the above illustration, we can see that as P increase, q decreases.

Option D.

When P = 2, q =.?

1/p = 3/q

1/2 = 3/q

Cross multiply

1 × q = 2 × 3

q = 6

When P = 3, q =.?

1/p = 3/q

1/3 = 3/q

Cross multiply

1 × q = 3 × 3

q = 9

From the above illustration, we can see that as P increase, q also increase.

Now, haven done the above, only option C gives a decreased value for q as the value of P increases.
