Answer:

The tall of the flag pole is 51 ft answer (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The tall of the man = 6 ft

∵ The his shadow = 10 ft

∵ The shadow of the flag pole = 85 ft

∵ Tall of the man/tall of the flag = shadow of the man/shadow

   of the flag

∴ 6/x = 10/85 ⇒ where x is the tall of the flag

∴ x = (6 × 85) ÷ 10 = 510 ÷ 10 = 51 ft

∴ The tall of the flag pole is 51 ft

The area is 32m², because the area if it were a complete rectangle is 48m², but when the small portion that is missing, 16m², is subtracted from that, you are left with 32.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Point B has been dilated to form point B'.

B(3, 1) → B'(6, 2)

          → B'[(2 × 3), (2 × 1)]

Since rule for the dilation of a point (x, y) by a factor of k is,

B(x, y) → B'(kx, ky)

By comparing the coordinates k = 2 is the scale factor by which the point B has been dilated about the origin.

Therefore, other vertices of the quadrilateral will be,

A(-2, 3) → A'(-4, 6)

C(1, -1) → C'(2, -2)

D(-3, -2) → D'(-6, -4)
