Set it up as a proportion. start with the smaller numbers, 6 ft friend and 4 ft shadow. 4/6 reduces to 2/3.  so 2/3= 24/x.   the easiest way to finish the problem is to divide by 2, and multiply by 3. for instance- 24/2= 12. 12*3= 36, so the building is 36 feet tall. to check plug it back in, is 2/3= 24/36?

55 degrees. If you add the other three angles together you get 305. Considering that a circle is 360 degrees, you would subtract those two and get 55.

The vertices of a triangle are A(2,4),B(-1,-3),and C(3,6). Find the new vertices. Use the rule (x,y) &gt;&gt;&gt;(x-3,y+5)to tra
Mama L [17]

Answer:

A(-1,9), B(-4,2) and C(0,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of a triangle are A(2,4),B(-1,-3),and C(3,6).

To translate, we use the rule (x,y) >>>(x-3,y+5)

For Vertex A(2,4),

The new vertex is (2-3, 4+5)=(-1,9)

For Vertex B(-1,-3)

The new vertex is (-1-3,-3+5)=(-4,2)

For Vertex C(3,6)

The new vertex is (3-3,6+5)=(0,11)

After translation of Vertex A, B and C by the given rule, the new points are A(-1,9), B(-4,2) and C(0,11)
