A line that is parallel to a side and intersects the other two siddes divides the sides proportionally.
Set up the proportion
2/x+1 = x/x+6
Multiply means and extremes
2x+12= x^2+ x

Answer:
4.61 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle of depression of the bottom of the shorter building from the top of the taller building = 48° equals the angle of elevation of the top of the taller building from the bottom of the shorter building
Using trig ratios
tan48° = H/d where H = height of taller building and d = their distance apart = 12 m
H = dtan48° = 12tan48° = 13.33 m
Also, the angle of elevation of the top of the shorter building from the bottom of the taller building is 36°
Using trig ratios
tan36° = h/d where h = height of shorter building
h =dtan36° = 12tan36° = 8.72 m
Now, the difference in height of the buildings is thus H - h = 13.33 m - 8.72 m = 4.61 m
Answer:
It is angle k and angle l
Step-by-step explanation:
When opposite sides are given, especially for a right triangle, the longer the length the bigger the angle. The hypotenuse, which is across the right angle is always longest. The shortest side will always have the smallest angle. Check the image if it helps.
Y = 925/z
