First, illustrate the problem:
24 feet is the distance between the tree and the mirror.
4 feet is the distance from Irene's eyes to the mirror.
5.5 feet is the distance of Irene's eyes from the ground.
4 feet is the distance of Irene from the mirror
From this, we can draw a right triangle and then use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the height of the oak tree. Also, we have an option to use ratio and proportion between two similar triangles.
To find the equation of a perpendicular line, you first need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope given. The slope is -1/3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be 3
Now we just need to find the y intercept using the point (3, 2) and you can plug the coordinates in and then solve for b. Let's see what that looks like.
y=3x+b
2=3*(3)+b
2=9+b
-7=b So now we know the y-intercept and slope. We just put them together now
y=3x-7
<span>the answer:
the main condition can be found one of the following given methods:
if A = B*C*D, if we want to find the value of B, so B = A /C*D, the similar method can be applied to find the value of C an D. These are C= A/ B*D and D = A /C*B
in our case we have C = 2*Pi* R, if we want to find the value of Pi, it is Pi = C / 2*R
the true answer is D</span>
