Let z=-√2-√2i where i2 = -1. Find |z|, arg(z), z* (where * indicates the complex conjugate), and (1/z). Where appropriate, write your answers in the form a + i b, where both a and b are real numbers. Indicate the positions of z, z*, and (1/z) on an Argand - A construction
A construction worker is trying to find the height of a skyrise building. He is standing some distance away from the base with an angle of elevation of 65 degrees. The worker moves 50 feet closer and measures the angle of elevation to be 75 degrees. Find - Maggie
Maggie observes a car and a tree from a window. The angle of depression of the car is 45 degrees, and that of the tree is 30 degrees. If the distance between the vehicle and the tree is 100 m, find Maggie's distance from the tree. - A hiker
A hiker plans to hike up one side of a mountain and down the other side of points a mountain, each side of the mountain formed by a straight line. The angle of elevation at the starting point is 42.4 degrees, and the angle of elevation at the end is 48.3 - The airplane
The airplane sights a runway at an angle of depression of 23°. It is flying at an altitude of 3 kilometers above the ground. What is the horizontal distance of the airplane from the airport? - Big tower
From the tower, which is 15 m high and 30 m from the river, the river's width appeared at an angle of 15°. How wide is the river in this place? - Building 67654
The 15 m high building is 30 m away from the river bank. The river's width can be seen from the roof of this building at an angle of 15 °. How wide is the river? - Horizontal 66434
The lower station of the cable car in Smokovec is at an altitude of 1025m, and the upper station at Hrebienk is at an altitude of 1272m. Calculate the climb of the cable car if the horizontal distance between the slopes is 1921m. - Horizontal 64864
The meter stick is located on the meridian plane and deviated from the horizontal plane to the north by an angle of magnitude 70°. Calculate the length of the shadow cast by a meter stick at true noon if the Sun culminates at an angle of 41°03'. - Hypotenuse 64694
