From the figure, we can conclude that the little triangle is an isosceles triangle, the greatest angle is 90 because ∠A = 90 and they are supplementary, therefore, using the triangle sum theorem:
Answer
The distance from the house to the lake is (2.5 hr)*(48 mi/hr) = 120 miles. The rerurn trip would take (120 mi)/(40 mi/hr) = 3 hours. Distance equals rate times time, so the distance to the lake is 2 1/2 hours times 48 miles per hour.
I hope this helps
y=1 is the answer, there is no slope, so the formula y=mx+b turns into y=b, since 1 is the intercept 1 is b.
I think u just subtract 35° from 130° and that should be the angle of x
So to find the ratio of the actual house to the house in the picture you would divide 72/4 to get 18. this means that the ratio is 18:1. Now multiply 2.5 x18 to get the real life height of the house. 2.5x18=45.
So the house is 45 feet tall.
Please anyone correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is right.
