PLEASE HELP I NEED IT The angle of elevation from a point on the ground to the top of a tower is 18°. The base of the tower is 100 feet from the point on the ground. Find the height of the tower. Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.

32.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation forms a right triangle. We are given the distance from the base of the tower (long leg of the triangle) and are asked to find the height (short leg of the triangle).

With this information, we can use the tan ratio, opposite over adjacent, to find the height of the tower.

tan 18 =

Multiply each side by 100:

(100) tan 18 = x

Simplify and round to the nearest tenth:

32.49 = x

32.5 = x

So, the height of the tower is approximately 32.5 feet

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
