Answer:

Answer  

Find out the what is the height of the building.

To prove

Let us assume that the height of the tree be x .

Let us assume that the shadow of the tree be y .

x = ky

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

As given

A 21 meter tall tree near a building casts a shadow that is 24 meters long.

21 = k × 24

k = 0.875

Let us assume that the height of the building be u .

As given

The building casts a shadow that is 56 meters long.

put values in the  x = ky

u = 0.875 × 56

u = 49 cm

Therefore the  height of the building is 49 cm .

Sahra is three times as old as her daughter. If the sum of their age is 32. what is the age of the daughter?​
Andrews [41]
So Sahra is 3 times as old as her daugter. That means that the sum of their age is the daughters age times 4.
We can prove that by saying the daughters age is x. Sahra's age must be 3x. Their sum must be x+3x = 4x.
So to get the daughters age we divide the sum by 4, which is 8.

A cuboid has side lengths 3cm, 4cm and 7cm. A cylinder with a height double that of the longest side of the cuboid has the same
mart [117]

Step-by-step explanation:

Longest side of cuboid: 7cm

Height of cylinder:

2 × 7 = 14 cm

Volume of cuboid:

7x3x4=84cm^3

Volume of cylinder:

84=14\pi r^2 \\r=\sqrt{\frac{6}{\pi} }  \ \ \  cm\\r=1.38 \ cm\\

Surface area of the cylinder:

\pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h

6+2\pi (\sqrt{\frac{6}{\pi} } ) (14)

=128 cm^2
