Answer: Height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of the wire = 20 feet
Let the height at which wire is attached to the pole be h
and distance along the ground from the bottom of the pole to the end of the wire be x+4
Now, it forms a right angle triangle so, we can apply "Pythagorus theorem".
But height cant be negative so, height will be 12 feet.
Hence, height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.
Answer:
Figure D
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If the scale factor of the dilation is 1/2, that means the dilation is a reduction
so
the answer is between the Figure C and Figure D
but
a rotation of 180° eliminate the Figure C
therefore
The answer is the Figure D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply factors.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem 1
1 ft = 12 inches
2 ft = 24 inches (multiply both sides by 2)
Multiply by 1/3 to get (1/3)*24 = 24/3 = 8
<h3>Answer: 8 inches</h3>
========================================
Problem 2
1 yard = 3 feet
3 yards = 9 feet (multiply both sides by 3)
1 ft = 12 inches
9 ft = 108 inches (multiply both sides by 9)
so overall, 3 yards = 108 inches
Multiply this by 1/6
(1/6)*(108 inches) = 108/6 = 18 inches
<h3>Answer: 18 inches</h3>
note: 18 inches = 12 inches + 6 inches = 1 ft, 6 inches = 1.5 ft
