theta = arctan (5/11) = 24.44 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand what the top 5 ft in the diagram refers to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think itsheight from the base of the triangle to the tip look at the really small arrows on the right side of the pic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh - i see so height of middle triangle is 10 ft so sin 24.44 = 10/ c so c = 10 / sin 24.44 = 24.17 ft tan 24,44 = d / (24.17/2) so d = tan24.44 * 12.085 = 5.49 ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for number 16 its 24.17?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can calculate g using pythagoras = sqrt(10^2 + 11^2) = 14.87 ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its wrong, its not 14.87 :/
