Answer:
81 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Well the formula to find an area of a triangle is (bh) / 2
In this case the base is 18 and the height is 9
18*9=162
162/2=81
Answer:
C = (2,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
B = (10 ; 2)
M = (6 ; 2)
C = (x ; y )
|___________|___________|
B (10;2) M (6;2) C ( x; y)
So:
dBM = dMC
√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2]
(2-2)^2 - (6-10)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2
0 + (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2
16 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2
16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2
Also:
2*dBM = dBC
2*√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2]
4*[(0)^2 + (-4)^2] = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2
4*(16) = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2
64 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2
64 = 16 - (x - 6)^2 + (x - 10)^2
48 = (x - 10)^2 - (x - 6)^2
48 = x^2 - 20*x + 100 - x^2 + 12*x - 36
48 = - 20*x + 100 + 12*x - 36
8*x = 16
x = 2
Thus:
16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2
16 - (2 - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2
16 - (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2
16 - 16 = (y-2)^2
0 = (y-2)^2
0 = y - 2
2 = y
⇒ C = (2,2)
Let ‘s’ be the son’s age 12 years ago.
Let ‘f’ be the father’s current age.
4 years ago, the son was:
s-4
So, his father is currently:
3(s-4)
=
3s-12
Therefore:
f = 3s-12
In twelve years, the son will be:
s+12
And the father will be:
f+12
This can also be written as:
3s-12+12 as the fathers younger age would be f = 3s+12
=
3s
So, we know that s+12 is half the fathers current age, meaning the father is currently 2(s+12) which is equivalent to 2s+24. Also, we know that the father is currently 3 times the sons age 12 years ago, so 3s (proven by the calculations we made above). Therefore, 2s+24=3s which means 24=s. We can then substitute this, and we will receive 24+12 = 36
Son’s current age: 36
We then substitute the son’s age 12 years ago into 2s+24 to give us the father’s age.
2(24)+24 = 72
Father’s current age: 72

Consider right triangle with vertices B - base of the hill, S - top of the statue and Y - you. In this triangle angle B is right and angle Y is 13.2°. If h is a height of the statue, then the legs YB and BS have lengths 77 ft and 16+h ft.
You have lengths of two legs and measure of one acute angle, then you can use tangent to find h:
ft.
Answer: the height of the statue is 2.0565 ft.
