The equation for the line of reflection is x = 2.
If you drew a vertical line crossing the x-axis on x = 2, the drawing will be the same on the left and right side, as if one side was drawn then exactly copied on the other side but flipped.
The figure is symmetrical, and x = 2 is the line of symmetry.
Hope this helps!
The length of the guy's wire to the nearest foot is 89 feet.
The situation forms a right-angled triangle.
<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
- A right-angle triangle has one angle of 90 degrees.
- The sides can be found using the Pythagoras theorem.
- The angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.
The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of the wire.
let's use the smaller triangle to find the angle opposite the tower. Therefore,
tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent
tan ∅ = 5 / 2
∅ = tan⁻¹ 2.5
∅ = 68.1985905136
∅ = 68.20°
Therefore,
cos 68.20 = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 68.20 = 33 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 33 / cos 68.20
hypotenuse = 88.8606843161
Therefore,
length of wire ≈ 89 feet.

You can get a circle by cutting horizontally and a hyperbola by cutting vertically. You can also get an ellipse and a parabola by cutting at an angle depending on whether the cut comes out the other side or not.
Your answer would be x =211
