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

How do you go about doing this surface area problem?
hammer [34]
Break it down into 2-Dimensional shapes. Then add the areas together.

From the picture you can see;
front & back rectangles are 2*(4 x 8) = 64 m²
2 side rectangles are 2*(4 x 12) = 56 m²
2 triangular front & back pieces are (1/2)*8*3 = 12 m²
2 roof rectangles are 2*(5 x 12) = 120 m²

total Surface area = 64 m² + 56 m² + 12 m² + 120 m²
= 252 m²

For the volume; break it up into 3-dimenssional shapes and add the volumes together.

From the picture you can see;
Rectangular box volume is 4 x 8 x 12 = 384 m³
Triangular roof volume is area of front triangle multiplied through the length. (1/2)*8*3* 12 = 144 m³

Total volume = 384 m³ + 144 m³
= 528 m³

4⋅10 ​6 ​​ 4, dot, 10, start superscript, 6, end superscript is how many times as large as 1\cdot10^41⋅10 ​4 ​​ 1, dot, 10, star
lesya [120]

The given problem is very confusing since it was copy pasted directly from the source so the equations look scrambled and plus it was one words. After my own translation, I believe the given numbers are:

4 ⋅ 10^6

and

1 ⋅ 10^4

The symbol ⋅ means that the two numbers are multiplied while the symbol ^ means an exponent of. Now we are asked to find how much the 1st number is larger than the 2nd number. To solve this, we simply have to divide the bigger number by the smaller number. Since 4 ⋅ 10^6 has bigger exponent than 1 ⋅ 10^4 then it is the bigger number.

Ratio = 4 ⋅ 10^6 / 1 ⋅ 10^4

Ratio = 4 ⋅ 10^2 = 400

Therefore 4 ⋅ 10^6 is 400 times bigger than 1 ⋅ 10^4.

<span>400 times</span>
