Answer:

40 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

height of the object = 10 cm

Distance of the object from the X-ray= 50 cm

Distance of detector from the source = 2 m = 200 cm

Height of the image, h = ?

Now,

\tan \theta = \frac{P}{B}

\tan \theta = \frac{10}{50}

\tan \theta = \frac{1}{5}

Again applying

\tan \theta = \frac{P}{B}

\frac{1}{5} = \frac{h}{200}

h = 40 cm

Hence, height of the image is equal to 40 cm.

zalisa [80]
Isolate the x

divide 3 from both sides

3x/3 > 6/3

x > 6/3

x > 2 is your answer

Note: because you are not dividing by a negative number, you do not need to flip the sign
