Answer:

∠ LMP = 77° , ∠ NMP = 103°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles on the straight line sum to 180° , that is

∠ LMP + ∠ NMP = 180 , substitute values

- 16x + 13 - 20x + 23 = 180 , that is

- 36x + 36 = 180 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

- 36x = 144 ( divide both sides by - 36 )

x = - 4

Then

∠ LMP = - 16x + 13 = - 16(- 4) + 13 = 64 + 13 = 77°

∠ NMP = - 20x + 23 = - 20(- 4) + 23 = 80 + 23 = 103°

Find the values of x and y

makkiz [27]

Answer:

x = 2

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABD, CE is the mid segment.

Therefore, by mid segment theorem:

2(5x - 3) = x + 12

10x - 6 = x + 12

10x - x = 12 + 6

9x = 18

x = 18/9

x = 2

Since, DE = EA

2y - 4 = y + 8

2y - y = 8 + 4

y = 12

Tree casts a shadow 30 feet long. A MHS student standing near the tree casts a shadow 9 feet long. The student is 6 feet tall. What is the height of the tree? Show all work

Answer:

Option D

The height of tree is 20 feet tall

Solution:

From given question,

Shadow of tree = 30 feet

Height of tree = ?

Height of student = 6 feet

Shadow of student = 9 feet

We have to find the height of tree

We can solve the sum by proportion

$\frac{\text{height of tree}}{\text{shadow of tree}} = \frac{\text{height of student}}{\text{shadow of tree}}$

This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

$\frac{\text{height of tree}}{30} = \frac{6}{9}\\\\\text{height of tree} = 30 \times \frac{6}{9} = 30 \times \frac{2}{3}\\\\\text{ height of tree } = 10 \times 2 = 20$

Thus height of tree is 20 feet tall
