Question

A toddler's playground has two slides on either side. The slide on the left is situated at a 45° angle to the ground and is 52 centimeters away from the base of the playground. The slide on the right is positioned at a 30° angle to the ground and is 98 centimeters away from the playground's base.



What is the total length of both slides on this playground rounded to the nearest tenth of a centimeter? Type the numeric answer only in the box below.

Answer 1

Do you want me to add the picture it came with?

Answer 2

draw a picture



sin45 = 52/x sin 30 = 98/y

x = 52/sin45 y = 98/sin30

hope this helps
