Answer:
70.1 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attached diagram.
Let AC is the reservoir with A as the bottom and C is the top.
Now, B is the position of Howard which is 109 yards from A i.e. AB = 109 yards.
Again, the angle elevation from B to C is 50 degrees.
So, ∠ ABC = 50°
Now, 
⇒ x = 109 cos 50 = 70.1 yards.
Therefore, the distance between the top of the reservoir and Howard i.e. BC is equal to 70.1 yards. (Answer)
From principle of floatation:
W = U
The volume of water displaced is as a result of the volume of object submerged.
The wood would also float with 1/4 of its total height or total volume below the water surface.
Ur so Beautiful can I please have brainliest!!!
I believe you would have to multiply both 25 and 20 and what ever number you get dived by 100 if the numbers to high multiply aging or subtract the number (if it's wrong I'm really not good at my math I'm sorry)
Answer: 80 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write these as fractions and do cross multiplication with the numerator being the height of the object while the denominator being the length of the shadow:
5 * 128 = 8x
640 = 8x
80 = x
Thus, the height of the lighthouse is 80 feet tall.
