8 ft /4 ft of shadow=x / 2 ft of shadow
x=(8 ft * 2 ft of shadow) / 4 ft of shadow=4 ft
height of a lawn ornament=4 ft
It’s important because you may doing something that includes that and you don’t have a ruler etc..
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles APD, DPC and CPB are supplementary. (Angles on a straight line)
Therefore Angle APD + Angle DPC + Angle CPB = 180°.
Since Angle DPC = 90° (Right angle),
Angle APD + Angle CPB = 180° - 90° = 90°.
=> (7x + 1) + (9x - 7) = 90
=> 16x - 6 = 90
=> x = 6
Hence arc measure of minor arc AD
= (7x + 1)° = [7(6) + 1]° = 43°.
