Using the Pythagorean theorem we can find the distance from the swimming pool to the courthouse:

Swimming pool to courthouse:

Distance = √(3^2 + 4^2)

Distance = √(9+16)

Distance = √25

Distance = 5 kilometers


Now total the distance the bird flew:

Courthouse to Library is given as 3 kilometers.

Library to swimming pool is given as 4 kilometers

Swimming pool to courthouse we calculated as 5 kilometers.


Total distance = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 kilometers.

A safety regulation states that the maximum angle of elevation for a rescue ladder is 72°. A fire department's longest ladder is
Julli [10]

Answer:

The maximum safe rescue height is   104.6 feet above the height of  the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a triangle ABC where C is the point where the rescue ladder is standing and  AB be the building  and Ladder making an angle of 72° as shown.

We have to find the height of the building.

Let x be the height of building

Using Trigonometric ratio,

\sin C=\frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

\sin 72^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{BC}

\sin 72^{\circ}=\frac{x}{110}

x=110 \times \sin 72^{\circ}

x=104.6

So, the maximum safe rescue height is   104.6 feet above the height of

the ground.

I need help!! It’s proving trapezoids theorems
sweet [91]

Because ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid, the angles A and D are congruent.

BA and CD are congruent (given) and AD is congruent to itself (reflexive property).

Then triangles BAD and CDA form a pair of SAS triangles, so they are congruent.

BD and CA are corresponding parts in those triangles, so they are congruent (CPCTC).
