A cell phone tower is anchored by two cables on each side for support. The cables stretch from the top of the tower to the ground, with each being equidistant from the base of the tower. The angle of depression from the top of the tower to the point in which the cable reaches the ground is 23 degrees. If the tower is 140 feet tall, find the ground distance between the cables. Round to the nearest tenth.

659.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 140 / tan 23  

x = 329.82(rounded to hundredth)

so total ground distance between the cables = 2x = 2(329.82) = 659.64 feet

there would only be 50 odd numbers between 1 and 100 so therefor there would be 50 even so that would only be 50 odd numbers.

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
