Answer:
169 m
Step-by-step explanation:
See the image below.
Line AB represents the monument and line BC its shadow
Line DB represents the man and Line BE it shadow.
The Sun’s rays are parallel, so AC||DE.
Then ∆ABC ~ ∆DBE
AB:BC::DB:BE
x/65.8 = 1.8/0.7 Multiply both sides by 65.8
x = 65.6 × 1.8/0.7
x = 65.6 × 2.571
x = 169 m
The height of the Washington monument is 169 m.
That should read:
h(t)=-16t^2+128t+144
h(3)=-16*9+128*3+144
h(3)=384
Answer:
The horizontal axis represents TIME
Step-by-step explanation:
In a time-series plot, the horizontal axis represents time, and the vertical axis represents the value of the variable we are measuring. -The values of the variable are plotted at each of the times, then the points are connected with straight lines.
(b) is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem,
A² + B² = C²
Where:
A = Length of side 1
B = Length of side 2
C = Hypotenuse
This rule applies to all right-angled triangles.
The length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is always the largest value.
Therefore, we can test the answers with the equation above.
(a)
8² + 18² = 20²
64 + 324 = 400
388 ≠ 400
The rule of Pythagorean theorem doesn't work on a, so (a) is not a right-angled triangle.
(b)
12² + 35² = 37²
144 + 1225 = 1369
1369 = 1369
The rule of Pythagorean theorem works here, so (b) is a right-angled triangle.
