Help! An airplane takes off at an angle of 15 degrees with the ground. To the nearest 10 feet, how far has the airplane flown when it has covered a horizontal distance of 1800 feet?

1863.5 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Trigonometry :

The distance, d in the attached diagram can be obtained using the trigonometric relation :

Cosθ = adjacent / hypotenus

Cos 15° = 1800 / d

0.9659258 = 1800 / d

0.9659258 * d = 1800

d = 1800 / 0.9659258

d = 1863.4971 feets

The distance covered to the nearest 10 feet = 1863.5 feets

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2

a
