The total height of the building in the picture has been shown as

x + x + 6

That is, the first two storys have been shown as x feet each and the total height is 26 feet.

That means the two x are actually 20 feet, (if you deduct the 6 feet given)

Total height = x + x + 6

26 = x + x + 6

26 = 2x + 6

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

26 - 6 = 2x + 6 - 6

20 = 2x

Divide both sides of the equation by 2 and you now have,

20/2 = 2x/2

10 = x

Therefore, te height of each story is 10 feet!

Answer: Assuming that you mean 1in:2ft the model house would be 13 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation: well 1 is half of 2 right? So if you want to get the numbers easier to use then just divide that 26 by 2 and then you get the scale 1in:1ft. From there it is easy, 13 feet of the real house= 13 inches in the model house

Which equation is correct

Anika [276]

For this case we have to define trigonometric relations of rectangular triangles that:

The cosine of an angle is given by the leg adjacent to the angle on the hypotenuse of the triangle.

The sine of an angle is given by the leg opposite the angle on the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Then, according to the figure we have:

$Sin (G) = \frac {15} {17}\\Cos (G) = \frac {8} {17}$

Answer:

$Sin (G) = \frac {15} {17}$
