- A lighthouse
A lighthouse overlooks a bay, and it is 77 meters high. From the top, the lighthouse keeper can see a yacht southward at an angle of depression of 32 degrees and another boat eastward at an angle of 25 degrees. What is the distance between the boats? - The apothem
The apothem of a regular hexagon is 5√3 inches. Find one of its sides and area. - One side 4
One side of a regular octagon is 12 inches. Find the apothem and its area. - A boy 5
A boy starts at A and walks 3km east to B. He then walks 4km north to C. Find the bearing of C from A. - A radio antenna
Avanti is trying to find the height of a radio antenna on the roof of a local building. She stands at a horizontal distance of 21 meters from the building. The angle of elevation from her eyes to the roof (point A) is 42°, and the angle of elevation from - A right
A right triangle has side lengths a=3, b=5, and c=4, as shown below. Use these lengths to find tan x, sin x, and cos x. - Calculate 83261

The area of a right triangle ABC is 346 cm2, and the angle at vertex A is 64°. Calculate the lengths of the overhangs a and b. - Observation 82811
From the 40 m high observation deck, you can see the top of the poplar at a depth angle of 50*10' and the bottom of the poplar at a depth angle of 58*. Calculate the height of the poplar. - Observer's 82805
An airliner currently flying over a location 2,400 m away from the observer's location is seen at an elevation angle of 26° 20'. At what height does the plane fly? - Observation 82708
At the top of the hill, there is a 30-meter-high observation tower. We can see its heel and shelter from a certain point in the valley at elevation angles a=28°30" and b=30°40". How high is the top of the hill above the horizontal plane of the observation - Mast angles and height
Calculate the height of the mast, whose foot can be seen at a depth angle of 11° and the top at a height angle of 28°. The mast is observed from a position 10 m above the level of the base of the mast. - Trapezoid 82216
Given is an isosceles trapezoid ABCD with bases 10 cm and 14 cm. The height of the trapezoid is 6 cm. Determine the interior angles of the trapezoid. - Vertically 82162
The pole is stuck vertically into the ground. The protruding length is 1m. What is the length of the shadow cast when the sun is just 50° above the horizon? - Quadrilateral 82146
Calculate the volume and surface area of a regular quadrilateral prism with base edge a=24 cm if the body diagonal makes an angle of 66° with the base. - Calculate 81950
The tangent of the angle formed by the adjacent sides of the triangle ABC (side a=29 m, b = 40 m) equals 1.05. Calculate the area of that triangle. - Coefficient 81704
In the equation of the line p: ax-2y+1=0, determine the coefficient a so that the line p: a) it formed an angle of 120° with the positive direction of the x-axis, b) passed through point A[3,-2], c) was parallel to the x-axis, d) had a direction of k = 4. - Base/hang/length 81468
A right triangle has a base/hang/length of 12 cm, and the angle with the hypotenuse is 13 degrees. What is the length of the second hypotenuse? - Isosceles 81130
The angle at the apex of an isosceles triangle is 78°. Base 28.5cm. Shoulder length? - Elevation 80869
We can see the top of the tower standing on a plane from a certain point A at an elevation angle of 39° 25''. If we come towards its foot 50m closer to place B, we can see the top of the tower from it at an elevation angle of 56° 42''. How tall is the tow
