sides is 1.8 and it is 19 feet high at the peak, what is the width of the cottage?
2. A cross section of a cottage, 18 ft wide, is an isosceles triangle. If the slope of a side is
1.5, find the height of the cottage.
3. Find the interior angles of the triangle with vertices A = (3, 2), B = (4, 5), and C = (-1, -1).
4. A television camera is located along the 40-yard line at a football game. If the camera is

the entire field of play, including end zones, which are 10 yards deep?
5. A television camera is 30 ft from the sideline of a basketball court 94 ft long. The camera
