Answer:

39 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

take the tree as AB , the distance between the man and the tree as BC, the distance between the man and the tip of the shadow CD and the point intersecting the hypotenuse CE

since CE parallel to AB we can BPT

CE/AB = CD/BD

6/32= CD/48

CD = 9 feet

since CD is feet

BC is 48-9 = 39 feet

determine if l || m based on the information given on the diagram. If yes, state the converse that proves the lines are parallel
kirza4 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. YES.

Converse: If same side interior angles are supplementary, then l || m. (Same side interior angles)

Since the sum of the two same side interior angles, 65° and 115°, equals 180°, therefore, l || m.

2. YES.

Converse: if two angles angles are a linear pair, they are supplementary, therefore l || m. (Linear pair)

Thus,

128° + 53° = 180°.

3. YES.

Converse: if two angles are corresponding angles and congruent, therefore l || m. (Corresponding angles).

Thus,

The indicated angles which are equal to 90°, are corresponding angles therefore, l || m.

4. YES

Converse: if two alternate exterior angles are congruent, then l || m. (Alternate exterior angles)

Thus, the two exterior angles are congruent, therefore l || m.
