Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the height of the building is: 24.9 m.

<h3>How to Apply the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

Where c is the length of the hypothenuse of a right triangle, and a and b are the legs of the right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem states that:

c = √(a² + b²).

The diagram of the building and its shadow form a right triangle as shown in the image below, where:

a = height of the building

b = 26

c = 36

Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we will have:

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = 24.9 m

What is the slope of the line?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The slope of the line must be 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

step 1

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

V_r_p=Bh ----> equation A

where

B is the area of the base of the prism

h is the height of the rectangular prism

step 2

The volume of a square pyramid is equal to

V_s_p=\frac{1}{3}Bh -----> equation B

where

B is the area of the square base of pyramid

h is the height of the pyramid

step 3

substitute equation A in equation B

V_s_p=\frac{1}{3}V_r_p

Find the relationship between the volume of  a rectangular prism and the volume of a square pyramid

\frac{V_r_p}{V_s_p}=3

therefore

The slope of the line must be 3

let's check it

To solve for the slope of the line, you must choose two coordinates first and use the formula

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Choosing the points (2,6) and (3,9)

substitute

m=\frac{9-6}{3-2}=3 ----> is correct

Which of the following is the best strategy to support children in learning about shapes?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The best option is C. Provide multiple worksheets with pictures of the basic shapes for children to colour.

<h3>What does the learning process in children involve?</h3>

The process of learning has often been described to include all but not limited to the following:

  • gaining new understanding,
  • learning new behaviours,
  • skills,
  • values, attitudes, and
  • preferences.

Children according to experts learn faster and easily remember what they see. Hence, providing multiple worksheets with pictures of the basic shapes for children to colour is the most cost-efficient strategy to support children in learning about shapes.
