The angle of elevation to an airplane viewed from the control tower at an airport is 15°. The tower is 100 feet high and Pilot Cory reports that the altitude of the airplane is 5100 feet (5000 feet higher than the control tower). How far away (ground distance) from the control tower is the airplane?

Will give are given that xy is parallel to zw. if xz is a transversal that intercepts xy and zw, angle angle alternate interior angles. since xy is parallel to zw, we know that these angles are we also know that angle xvy and angle zvw are , and thus congruent. we can conclude that △xyv ~ △zwv using the similarity theorem.

Awater holding tank measures 105 m long, 50 m wide, and 8 m deep. traces of mercury have been found in the tank, with a concen- tration of 60 mg/l. what is the total mass of mercury in the tank? answer in units of kg.

Which of these angles are supplementary? a. 100o and 90o b. 78o and 102o c. 54o and 146o d. 12o and 78o
