Answer:

4.089

Step-by-step explanation:

24 degree is the Angle of elevation. SO we can use in this triangle Tan.

So tan 24 = AB/BC because tan is the ratio of height over adjacent.

So we can say it is tan 24 = (1.82)/BC

So BC = (1.82)/tan(24) = 4.089m

BC is representing shadow of men. So shadow of men is 4.089m

Is the line through points P(–7, 0) and Q(6, –5) parallel to the line through points R(–1, –1) and S(0, –4)? Explain. - PLEASE H
Vladimir [108]

for that two lines be parallel the condition is  that  two slope be equal m1 = m2

Now you must calculate with point givens both slope , with the following formula

m=  y2-y1/ x2-x1,  for the firsts two points  P( -7,0) and Q( 6,-5)

m = -5-0/6-(-7) , m = -5/13

for the seconds points R (-1,-1) and S( 0,-4)

m = -4-(-1)/ 0-(-1) = -3/1 = -3

the lines are not parallel, m1 ≠ m2
