70
The information given is that for every 2 students studying physics 3 were studying chemistry
Answer = 72°
Complementary angles always add up to be 90.
We can write the smaller angle as x and the bigger angle as 4x, because it is 4 times bigger than x.
x + 4x = 90
5x = 90
x = 18.
This proves the smaller angle, or angle B, is 18. We know angle A is 4 times as big as 18, so we can multiply 18 x 4 to get 72.
Double check = 72 + 18 = 90
The geometry technique that Chee uses to find the height of the goalpost is the equal ratio of the corresponding sides of similar triangles.
Correct response:
- The eight of the goalpost is approximately <u>16.91 meters</u>.
<h3>Methods used to calculate the height</h3>
The length Chee is using the mirror to measure = The height of her school's football goalpost
The distance of the mirror from the goalpost = 14.35 meters
The distance on the other side of the mirror Chee steps to = 1.4 meters
The distance from her eyes to the ground = 1.65 meters
Required:
How tall is the goalpost.
Solution:
By using similar triangles relationships, we have;

Which gives;

- The height of the goalpost, h ≈ <u>16.91 meters</u>
