The tower is 61.65 meters tall.
<u>SOLUTION: </u>
Given that, a pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long.
At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m long.
We have to find height of the tower.
Now, we know that,
Then, (let it be) n meter tall 36.25 long shadow
So, by cross multiplication method,
This can be written as,
Cross multiplications steps: (To find Single Variable)
- Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction.
- Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
- Set the two products equal to each other.
- Solve for the variable.
Answer: The image is attached.
Step-by-step explanation:
A Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the image and the pre-image have the same shape, but their sizes are different.
When the scale factor is greater than 1, the image obtained after the dilation is greater than the pre-image and it is an "Enlargement".
When the scale factor is is between 0 and 1, the image obtained after the dilation is smaller than the pre-image and it is an "Reduction".
In this case we know that the scale factor is:
Since:
It is an Enlargement.
You can identify that the vertices of the pre-image shown in the figure, are:
So you need to multiply the coordinates of those vertices by 4 in order to get the coordinates of the image;
Now you can draw it (The image is attached).
