Answer:
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
Step-by-step explanation:
The doc file displays the triangle formed from the illustration. x is the height of the street light. The distance from the gentle man to the street light is 10 ft. He has a height of 5.6 ft and the shadow formed on the ground is 24 ft long. The height of the street light can be calculated below.
The length of the tip of the shadow to the base of the street light is 34 ft. Similar triangle have equal ratio of their corresponding sides .
ab = 5.6 ft
The ratio of the base sides = 24/34
The ratio of the heights = 5.6/x
The two ratio are equal Therefore,
24/34 = 5.6/x
24x = 5.6 × 34
24x = 190.4
divide both side by 24
x = 190.4/24
x = 7.93333333333
x ≈ 8 ft
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
Answer:12
Step-by-step explanation:
15-3=12
2c=14 (move 5 to the other side by adding it to 9)
c=7 (divide by 2 to get c on its own)
Answer:
200 sq cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Lateral surface area is the surface area without the bases, or without the top and bottom. So, you just add up the area of the 4 sides.
The front and back are both 10 x 20, so 200 each = 400
The left and right are 5 x 20, so 100 each = 200
The lateral surface area is 200 sq. cm.
Answer:
2 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
1 pound = 1/2 hour (30 minutes)
x pound(s) = 1 hour (60 minutes)
Equation:
1 pound · (2) = 1/2 hour · (2)
2 = 1 hour
