A Road Is Inclined At An Angle Of 5 After Driving 5328 Feet Along This Road Find The Drivers Increase In Altitude Round To The Nearest Foot class=

Sagot :

Answer:

464 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sine of the angle of inclination gives the increase in altitude.

This is because the Sine of an angle is equal to the Opposite side divided by the Hypotenuse side. i.e

Sin Ф = Opposite  ÷ Hypotenuse

Sin 5° = O ÷ 5328

0·08716 = O ÷ 5328

Make O the subject and multiply every fraction by 5328

(0·08716/1 × 5328)= (O/5328 × 5328)

464·388 = O

∴ The increase in altitude is 464·388 feet

This is supposed to be to the nearest foot so we round off

464·388 becomes 464 feet
