Using similarity principle, the height of the tree is 1.97 meters

<h3>How to find height of the tree?</h3>

He is 1.75 meters tall.

His shadow = 33.7 meters

The length of the tree shadows = 37.95 meters

Using similarity principles where the corresponding length are a ratio of each other.

Therefore,

1.75 / x = 33.7 / 37.95

cross multiply

37.95 × 1.75 = 33.7x

66.4125 = 33.7x

divide both sides by 33.7

x = 66.4125 / 33.7

x = 1.97069732938

x = 1.97 meters

Turn 45% into a decimal.  You get 0.45,  because you move the decimal two places to the left.

Then multiply 300*0.45
You get 135

Cone A has a radius of 2 inches and a height of 3 inches. In cone B, the height is the same, but the radius is doubled. Calculat
wlad13 [49]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for calculate the volume of a cone:

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Where r is the radius and h is the height.

Volume of the cone A:

V_A=\frac{1}{3}\pi (2in)^2(3in)=12.56in^3

Volume of the cone B:

If the height of the cone B and the height of the cone A are the same , but the radius of the cone B is doubled, then its radius is:

r_B=2r_A\\r_B=2*2in\\r_B=4in

Then:

V_B=\frac{1}{3}\pi (4in)^2(3in)=50.26in^3

Divide V_B by V_A:

\frac{V_B}{V_A}=\frac{50.26in^3}{12.56in^3}=4

Therefore: When the radius is doubled, the resulting volume is 4 times that of the original cone.
