A source of laser light sends rays AB and AC toward two opposite walls of a hall. The light rays strike the walls at points B and C, as shown below: A source of laser light is at point A on the ground between two parallel walls. The walls are perpendicular to the ground. AB is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the left at point B which is 60 meters above the ground. AC is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the right at point C which is 40 m above the ground. The ray AB makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground. The ray AC makes an angle of 30 degrees with the ground.

http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=60%2F%E2%88%9A3+%2B+40%E2%88%9A3+%3D+ C is the best choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

40cot(30∘)+60cot(60∘)=603√=103.923 i didnt want to give him the answer i wanted him to solve for it but yeah C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 103.923

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh

OpenStudy (misssunshinexxoxo):
