Answer 2

The length of the guy wire is approximately 74.7 feet, and the height of the antenna is approximately 72.2 feet.

Here, we have,

To find the length of the guy wire and the height of the antenna, we can use trigonometry and the concept of right triangles.

In this scenario, the guy wire represents the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and the height of the antenna represents one of the legs of the triangle.

The angle of elevation formed by the guy wire is given as 79 degrees.

Let's denote the length of the guy wire as h and the height of the antenna as a.

Using the trigonometric function sine (sin), we can relate the angle of elevation and the sides of the triangle:

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse.

In this case, the opposite side is the height of the antenna (a), and the hypotenuse is the length of the guy wire (h).

sin(79°) = a/h.

To solve for h, we can rearrange the equation as:

h = a / sin(79°).

We also have another relationship between the sides of the triangle.

The base of the right triangle is given as 15 feet, and the height of the antenna is a.

Therefore, using the Pythagorean theorem, we have:

h² = a² + 15².

Now we can substitute the expression for h from the first equation into the second equation:

(a / sin(79°))² = a² + 15².

Expanding and simplifying, we get:

a² / sin²(79°) = a² + 225.

Multiplying both sides of the equation by sin²(79°), we have:

a² = sin²(79°) * (a² + 225).

Expanding again, we get:

a² = sin²(79°) * a² + 225 * sin²(79°).

Rearranging the equation, we have:

a² - sin²(79°) * a² = 225 * sin²(79°).

Factoring out a², we get:

(1 - sin²(79°)) * a² = 225 * sin²(79°).

Using the trigonometric identity sin²(θ) + cos²(θ) = 1,

we know that cos²(θ) = 1 - sin²(θ).

Therefore:

cos²(79°) * a² = 225 * sin²(79°).

Taking the square root of both sides, we have:

cos(79°) * a = 15 * sin(79°).

Simplifying, we get:

a = (15 * sin(79°)) / cos(79°).

Using a calculator or software, we find:

a ≈ 72.2 feet (rounded to one decimal place).

Now, to find the length of the guy wire (h), we can substitute the value of a into the first equation:

h = a / sin(79°).

Using a calculator or software, we find:

h ≈ 74.7 feet (rounded to one decimal place).

Therefore, the length of the guy wire is approximately 74.7 feet, and the height of the antenna is approximately 72.2 feet.

Answers

Answer:

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 0.75²

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

the center is (h, k) = (-2, -2)

the radius is r = 0.75

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 0.75²

Answer:

(x + 2)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 0.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the graph, we can see the center of the circle is (-2, -2) and by counting the squares, the radius is 0.75.

The standard form of a circle equation is:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

We can substitute our values in to get:

(x + 2)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 0.5625

Your dog is 8 years younger than your friend. In 2 years, your friend will be three times as old as your dog. How old is your dog now?

Answers

Answer:

Dog is 2 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let dog's age = d

Let friend's age = f

Your dog is 8 years younger than your friend:

d +8 = f

In 2 years, your friend will be three times as old as your dog:

3(d+2) = (f+2)

3d+6 = f+2

3d = f - 4

(sub in f=d+8 from above)

3d = f - 4

3d = d+8 - 4

2d = 4

d = 2
