A boat is heading towards a lighthouse, where Mason is watching from a vertical
distance of 122 feet above the water. Mason measures an angle of depression to the
boat at point A to be 16°. At some later time, Mason takes another measurement and
finds the angle of depression to the boat (now at point B) to be 66°. Find the distance
from point A to point B. Round your answer to the nearest foot if necessary.
Answers
The distance between point A and point B is 371 ft if the Mason measures an angle of depression to the boat at point A to be 16°.
What is trigonometry?Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.
We have:
A boat is heading towards a lighthouse, where Mason is watching from a vertical distance of 122 feet above the water. Mason measures an angle of depression to the boat at point A to be 16°.
We can draw the above situation as a form of a right-angle triangle.
From the figure, the distance between AB is x ft
From the right angle triangle DBC:
tan66 = 122/CB
CB = 54.31 ft
From the right angle triangle DAC
tan16 = 122/AC
AC = 425.46 ft
x = AC - CB
x = 425.46 - 54.31
x = 371.15 ft ≈ 371 ft
Thus, the distance between point A and point B is 371 ft if the Mason measures an angle of depression to the boat at point A to be 16°.

Domain: [tex]\boldsymbol{(-\infty, \infty)}[/tex]
Range: [tex]\boldsymbol{(-\infty, \infty)}[/tex]
=======================================================
Explanation:
domain = set of all possible x inputs
range = set of all possible y outputs
--------------
In this case, the domain is the set of all real numbers because the graph stretches forever to the left and right. There aren't any gaps, holes, jumps, etc to worry about. Any real number works as an input.
We can say x is between [tex]-\infty[/tex] and [tex]\infty[/tex] and write [tex]-\infty < x < \infty[/tex]
That turns into the interval notation [tex](-\infty, \infty)[/tex]
The curved parenthesis are always used with either infinity because we cannot reach them.
--------------
The range is the same story, but with the y values this time. The graph stretches forever upward and downward due to the arrow.
If it peaked at y = 4, then the range would be [tex](-\infty, 4][/tex], but instead the graph goes beyond y = 4 because of that upward arrow.
Two boats left a base camp at bearing of S60°E and S50°W at speeds of 50km/h and 70km/h respectively. Find the distance between the both boats after two hours.
Answers
Answer:
197.93 kmStep-by-step explanation:
Let the base camp is point A and boats' locations after two hours are points B and C.
By connecting the three points together we get a triangle ABC with sides:
AB = 50*2 = 100 kmAC = 70*2 = 140 kmThe angle between AB and AC is:
60 + 50 = 110 degrees (opposite directions from south)We are looking for the distance BC, which can be found by using the law of cosines:
BC² = AB² + AC² - 2AB*AC*cos ∠BACBC² = 100² + 140² - 2*100*140*cos 110°BC² = 39176.56 (rounded)BC = √39176.56 = 197.93 km (rounded)The distance between the boats is 197.93 km.

find the value of x in the given figure
Answers
To solve this problem, you will first use the Angle Sum Property to determine the value of x after creating an algebraic equation, combining like terms, and subtracting from both sides of an equation.
Use the Angle Sum PropertyThe Angle Sum Property states that all interior angles of a triangle will summate to 180º.
An equation can be created to find this when you are given two angles and missing a third. That third angle can be referred to as x in this scenario.
Adding the two known angles and the unknown angle will result in a sum of 180º. This means that our unknown is x and can therefore be placed in an equation:
[tex]65+42+x=180[/tex]
Combine Like TermsCombine the like terms by combining the constants on the left side of the equation using addition:
[tex]65+42+x=180[/tex]
[tex]107+x=180[/tex]
SubtractAfter combining like terms, subtract 107 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]107 - 107 +x = 180-107[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{x=73}[/tex]
The final answer is x = 73 degrees.

The theoretical probability of getting two tails on two coin tosses is 0.25.
How to calculate the probability?The theoretical probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. Given a coin is tossed twice.
We have to find the theoretical probability of tossing two tails. The probability of getting tails on the toss of a coin is 1/2 0r 0.5.
Therefore, the probability of getting two tails on two coin tosses is 0.5 × 0.5 or 0.25.

The function is h(t) = 7/4 cos π/3 t + 9/4,
What is function?An expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).
As, h(t) = x cos π/3 t +y
when t= 0, h(t) = 4
when t= 3, h(t) = 0.5
So,
x cos π/3 *0 +y=4
x cos π/3 *3 +y=0.5
and, x+ y = 4, -x+ y =0.5
Now,
2y= 4.5
y= 9/4

Answers
Answer:
1:24pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Couple of ways to solve this. Here is one method
Convert all times to minutes and find the total number of minutes they spent on all 3 activities. Then convert to hours and minutes and subtract from the end time of 5;28 to get the start time of all activities which is also the start time of watching the movie (first activity)
So time spent:
Movie: 2 hours 18 minutes = 2 * 60 + 18 = 120 + 18 = 138 minutes
Card game: 34 minutes
Soccer: 1 hour 12 minutes = 1 * 60 + 12 = 72 minutes
Total time spent = 138 + 34 + 72 = 244 minutes = 4 hours and 04 minutes
Subtract 4:04 from 5:28 to get 1:24pm
Check
Movie watch starts at 4:04, ends at 1:24 + 2:18 or 3:42pm
Card game starts at 3:42pm ends at 3:42+0:34 ==> 4:16pm
Soccer starts at 4:16pm ends at 4:16pm + 1:12 ==> 5;28pm

Answer:
4 rows
Step-by-step explanation:
First set:
unknown rows, 5 tiles each
meaning old total is divisible by 5
Second set:
3 additional rows, 3 tiles each
meaning that the new total is divisible by 3
so, our total number of tiles is divisible by 5, add 1 and it is divisible by 3 when added 1
{another way I solved it : [and when it is divided by 3, it has 8 that fit into the original pattern; which is another way of knowing that each of the rows of 5 [each have 2 removed when turned into rows of 3] add up to having a remainder of 8 tiles; 8 / 2 = 4; so there were four rows in the original pattern contributing to the change--there were four rows] }
x is divisible by 5, x + 1 is divisible by 3
essentially, we are looking for a number that ends in 5 or 0, and the next number [ending in 6 or 1] is divisible by 3
I know that 5 goes into 20, and that 21 is divisible by 3, so let's test it out:
4 (rows of 5) turns into 7 [4 + 3] rows of 3
because 21 can be split into 7 rows, this number of tiles is possible
so, in the original pattern, there must have been 4 rows

You would have to visit the movies 10 times to get your first free ticket
Tristan needs to make at least 10 visits to the movie theater to earn his first free movie ticket.
Let v be the number of visits Tristan makes to the movie theater.
He receives 25 rewards points just for signing up, and he earns 8.5 points for each visit. So, the total rewards points he will have is
25+8.5v.
He needs at least 110 points for a free movie ticket. Therefore, we can write the inequality:
25+8.5v≥110
To solve for v, we can subtract 25 from both sides of the inequality and then divide by 8.5:
8.5v≥85
v≥85/8.5
v≥10
So, Tristan needs to make at least 10 visits to the movie theater to earn his first free movie ticket.
