<span>Let the height of tree be denoted as AB and the shadow cast by the tree be BE. ABE is the triangle formed the tree, rays and the ground. Let the height of the person be CD and the length of his shadow be DE. CDE is the triangle formed by the person, rays and the ground.
We have two triangles. Both the person and the tree stand vertically over the horizontal ground, therefore they make 90 degrees with the ground. The angle formed at the ground is the same for the both the triangles. Therefore, by AA similarity the two triangles are similar.
We know that if two triangles are similar, then their sides are proportional.
Therefore,
AB/CD =BE/DE
AB/6 = 143/11
AB= (143/11) *6
AB = 78 ft.</span>
1/2 divide by 4/1 = 1/8
when u divide u flip the second fraction around and multiply
1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8
The way to work this out is to find a common denominator. so in this case 80 is a common denominator. So it would be 3/8 into 30/80 and then 4/10 into 32/80 therefore 4/10 is bigger
I believe that the question is assuming this is taking place over one month here is what I think you would do.
1) 75/12.5 = 6
2) add that answer to 75, so 75+6, and you get 81
Answer:
after nine days the total will be 2,430 mile
Step-by-step explanation:
258x9=2322
12x9=108
2322+108=2430
