Answer:
20.833 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The light reflects off the mirror at the same angle that it hits it at. So the triangle formed by the beam and mirror is similar to the triangle formed by Kevin and the mirror.
Therefore, we can write and solve a proportion.
h / 10 = 6.25 / 3
h = 20.833
The beam is 20.833 feet tall.
To make it simple make them all the same fraction
6/24 to trim 4/24 to style and she wants to work for 80/24 hours for 5 days
if each appointment she wants to take 6/24 to trim and 4/24 to style then every appointment will take 10/24 of an hour.
she wants to do 80/24 so she can do 8 appointments a day if each take 10/24
8 appointments a day 5 days a week
8x5= 40
*The side with the middle length is 12cm, therefore BC must be 12 cm

<span>Find 1 share
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
Given that BC = 12 cm
4 shares = 12 cm
1 share = 12 ÷ 4 = 3cm
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
Find AC (4 shares)
-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
3 shares = 3 x 3 = 9 cm
BC = 9cm
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
<span>Find AB (5 shares)
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
5 shares = 5 x 3 = 15cm
AB = 15cm

Given that the biggest ratio is AB
</span>⇒AB is the hypotenuse
AB = 15 cm
