Two poles of different heights are used for a climbing event and need to be secured to the ground using wires. The shorter pole

is 6.0 m tall and the wire is secured 8.0 m from the base of the pole. If wire of the taller pole is 16.0 m long. Determine the height of the taller pole

Answer:

12.8 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the wire on the shorter pole (AC)

= √(6^2+8^2)

= √100

= 10 m.

The 2 triangles are similar so

10/16 = 8/x      where x is height of taller pole.

10x = 128

x = 12.8m

57:22 5 What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the po
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

C. y + 3 = ¼(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Find the slope of the given line:

Slope = ∆y/∆x = -(4/1) = -4

The line that is perpendicular to the given line on the graph would have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of -4.

Thus, the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line on the graph would be ¼.

m = ¼.

Since the line passes through (-4, -3), to write the equation in point-slope form, substitute a = -4, b = -3, and m = ¼ into y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - (-3) = ¼(x - (-4))

y + 3 = ¼(x + 4)
