This is like the equivalent to a jar with 4 green balls and 6 white balls, where you are picking 3. (The 4 green balls signify the friends from kindergarten.)

You want to solve the probability that the first two balls are green and the third is white.
First draw --> 4 green out of 10 balls --> 4/10 = 2/5

Second draw --> 3 green out of 9 balls --> 3/9 = 1/3

Third draw --> 6 white out of 8 balls --> 6/8 = 3/4

2/5 x 1/3 x 3/4

= 6/60

= 1/10

so the answer is 1/10 (or 10%)

A statue is mounted on top of a 21 foot hill. From the base of the hill to where you are standing is 57feet and the statue subte

Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.

As we can see from the diagram,

RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill

PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill

SR= h=height of the statue

$\angle SPR$ =Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.

$\angle x=\angle RPQ$ = which is unknown.

Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle $\angle x$ which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in $\Delta PQR$ :
