Altitude = 175.6 units

Answer:

AD=175.66 units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that ABC is an isosceles triangle in which base is 246 and the non base angle is 70°.

Thus, applying the angle sum property in ΔABC, we get

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

⇒70°+2∠B=180°

⇒∠B=55°

Thus, ∠B=∠C=55°.

Now, Draw AD perpendicular to BC such that BD=DC=123, then applying trigonometry in ΔADC, we have

\frac{AD}{DC}=tan55^{\circ}

⇒\frac{AD}{123}=1.428

⇒AD=123(1.428)

⇒AD=175.66 units

Thus, the length of the altitude is 175.66.

Average speed =   (distance final - distance initial)/(time final - time initial)
Average speed = (30-0)km /(100 -0)min = 3/10 km/min

3/10 km/min *60 min/1 h = 180/10 km/h= 18 km/h

Use The Scale Factor 1:12 To Find The Missing Dimension
adell [148]

Answer:

The length of the model is 21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

The scale factor

\frac{1}{12}

That means

1 unit in the model represent 12 units in the actual

1 inch in the model represent 12 inches in the actual

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

so

1 inch in the model represent 1 ft in the actual

The scale factor is

\frac{1}{1}\ \frac{in}{ft}

therefore

21 ft in the actual represent 21 inches in the model
