Help please! Geometry word problem!

Mathematics

By applying <em>reflection</em> theory and constructing a <em>geometric</em> system of two <em>proportional right</em> triangles, the height of the stainless steel globe is approximately 140 ft.

<h3>How to estimate the height of the stainless steel globe</h3>

By physics we know that both the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are same. Thus, we have a <em>geometric</em> system formed by two <em>proportional right</em> triangles:

5.6 ft / 4 ft = h / 100 ft

h = (5.6 ft × 100 ft) / 4ft

h = 140 ft

By applying <em>reflection</em> theory and constructing a <em>geometric</em> system of two <em>proportional right</em> triangles, the height of the stainless steel globe is approximately 140 ft.

Which formula best expresses your monthly ending balance?
igor_vitrenko [27]
Withdrawals must be subtracted from the beginning balance since to withdraw means to take out, so withdrawing money would lower the balance.
Deposits are added to the balance, so they must be added in the equation.

The answer is <span>c) Beginning Balance - Withdrawals + Deposits = Ending Balance</span>

Which expression could help you find the distance
Allisa [31]

\quad \huge \quad \quad \boxed{ \tt \:Answer }

Correct Expression :

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  |10|  +  | - 6|

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: distance = 16\:\: units\degree

____________________________________

\large \tt Solution  \: :

\textsf{Using distance formula -}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1) {}^{2} + (y_2 - y_1) {}^{2}  }

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \sqrt{( - 6 - 10) {}^{2}  + (4 - 4) {}^{2} }

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \sqrt{( - 16) {}^{2}  + 0}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \sqrt{256}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 16 \:  \: units

For short it can be expressed as :

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  |10|  +  | - 6|  = 10 + 6 = 16

[ y - coordinate of both the points are same ]

Correct option - D
