Divide the perimeter by 2, this will give you the sum of one length and one width.

68/2 = 34 yards

Now the length is  10 yards more, so subtract 10 from the 34 and divide by 2 again:

34 - 10 = 24

24 /2 = 12

The width is 12 yards.

The length is 12 + 10 = 22 yards.

At a certain time of day 1.8m tall person standing next to the Washington monument cast a 0.7m shadow at the same time the Washi
mezya [45]

Answer:

169 m

Step-by-step explanation:

See the image below.

Line AB represents the monument and line BC its shadow

Line DB represents the man and Line BE it shadow.

The Sun’s rays are parallel, so AC||DE.

Then ∆ABC ~ ∆DBE

AB:BC::DB:BE

x/65.8 = 1.8/0.7     Multiply both sides by 65.8

       x = 65.6 × 1.8/0.7  

       x = 65.6 × 2.571

       x = 169 m

The height of the Washington monument is 169 m.
