The first thing we are going to do is draw a diagram of the situation to help us to solve the situation.
We an draw tow similar triangle between the length of the shadows and the height of the stick and the pole.
Since <span>meter stick has a length of 1 meter, the height of our smaller triangle is 1 meter. Let </span>h be height of of the pole. Since both triangles are similiar we can establish a proportion between their corresponding sides and solve for h:
\frac{h}{1} = \frac{9.7}{2.4}
h=\frac{9.7}{2.4}
h=4.04

We can conclude that the pole is 4.04 meters tall.

Find the measure of unknown angle​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

z = 102 degree (opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal)

z + x + 34 = 180 degree 9sum of adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180 degree)

102 + x + 34 = 180

x = 180 - 136

x = 44 degree

y + 102 + x = 180 degree (sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degree)

y + 102 + 44 = 180

y = 180 - 146

y = 34 degree

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

<u></u>\frac{10m^{10}n^{6}p^{9}}{y}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying the numerator :

⇒ (-5m⁷n⁰p⁵)(2m⁴n³p²)³

⇒ (-5m⁷p⁵)(8m¹²n⁹p⁶)

⇒ (-5)(8)(m)⁷⁺¹²n⁹(p)⁵⁺⁶

⇒ <u>-40m¹⁹n⁹p¹¹</u>

<u />

Dividing by the denominator :

⇒ \frac{-40m^{19}n^{9} p^{11}  }{-4m^{9}n^{3}p^{2}y} }

⇒ \frac{10m^{10}n^{6}p^{9}}{y}

Domain of the function f(x)=3x/4x^2-4
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

the complete question in the attached figure


we have that

f(x)=3x/(4x²-4)


we know that

the denominator can not be zero

so

(4x²-4)=0

4x²=4

x²=1----> x=(+/-)√1

x1=1

x2=-1

the values ​​of x=1 and x= -1 make the denominator zero, therefore they do not belong to the domain of the function


the answer is

the domain of the function is all real numbers except 1 and -1
