1 answer:
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
We will be using Pythagoras theorem to solve this problem. This is as this problem forms a right-angle triangle. Pythagoras theorem is the following:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle
Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle
To begin with, we will substitute the values from the problem into the equation. Then we will make the height of the tree the subject of the equation.
a = height of tree = ?
b = distance from the bird on the ground to the base of the tree = 8 metres
c = distance bird travelled from the ground to the top of the tree = 9 metres
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 8^2 = 9^2
a^2 = 9^2 - 8^2
a = square root of ( 9^2 - 8^2 )
a = square root of ( 81 - 64 )
a = square root of ( 17 )
a = 4.123...
a = 4.1 ( rounded to the nearest tenth )
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, the height of the tree is 4.1 metres ( rounded to the nearest tenth ).
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3

Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'x' be number of females in the course
Number of males= 5x
total number of students= 5x+x
= 6x
Fraction of male students= number of male students/total number of students
= 5x/6x
= 5/6
Answer:
Piano Play has the better deal
Step-by-step explanation:
Piano Play has the better deal because it has a lower unit rate
Make Music’s unit rate is 52.5 when you divide $525 by 10 hours
