A kite is tied to the ground. The rays from the sun hit the kite perpendicular to the kite string, casting a shadow of the kite

on the ground. The coordinates in the diagram are given in feet. What is the distance from where the kite is tied to the shadow? (3,12) (0,0)

so if you are asking for the distance do y2-y1/x2-x1

0-12/3-0

-12/3=-4

so -4 units

So looking at the coordinates 3,12  and 0,0  if you were to add those two you would get 15 but the kite went up to about 12 feet high into the sky but it is at an angle of 3 feet ( perpendicular ) so I think that my best answer to give you is 15

But if you re looking for distance its  (Y2 - Y1) / X2 - X1
0 - 12 Divided by 3 - 0     |   -12 / Divided by 3 = -4
Than your answer would be -4

dose this help you in any way?

Olegator [25]

Answer:

x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

8(x−4)<7x−3; distribute 8 in the parenthesis

8x - 32 < 7x - 3; subtract 7x from both sides

x - 32 < -3; add 32 to both sides

x < 29

Consider kite WXYZ. What are the values of a and b? a = 4; b = 10. a = 4; b = 40, a = 8; b = 10, a = 8; b = 40
Brut [27]

Check the picture below.

let's recall that a kite is a quadrilateral, and thus is a polygon with 4 sides

sum of all interior angles in a polygon

180(n - 2)      n = number of sides

so for a quadrilateral that'd be 180( 4 - 2 ) = 360, thus

\bf 3b+70+50+3b=360\implies 6b+120=360\implies 6b=240 \\\\\\ b=\cfrac{240}{6}\implies b=40 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \overline{XY}=\overline{YZ}\implies 3a-5=a+11\implies 2a-5=11 \\\\\\ 2a=16\implies a=\cfrac{16}{2}\implies a=8
