Answer: 34.64 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A boat is 60 m from the base of a lighthouse.
The angle of depression between the lighthouse and the boat is 37°.
By using trigonometric ratios :
here x= 37°, side opposite to x = height of lighthouse (h) , side adjacent to x = 60 m
Hence, the lighthouse is 34.64 m tall.
10. The volume of the triangular prism is , then
.
11. The volume of the triangular pyramid is , then
.
12. They have common base (common triangle). y=7.7, r=23.1, then r:y=23.1:7.7=3.
13. See 10 and 11 for notations in symbols.
<u>Given</u>:
Given that the triangle ABC is similar to triangle FGH.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
Since, the triangles are similar, then their sides are proportional.
Thus, we have;
Let us consider the proportion to determine the value of x.
Substituting AB = 9 cm, GF = 13.5 cm, BC = 15 cm and GH = x, we get;
Cross multiplying, we get;
Thus, the value of x is 22.5 cm
Hence, Option F is the correct answer.
