\frac{height _{1} }{shadow_{1}} =  \frac{height _{2} }{shadow_{2}}

\frac{height _{1} }{27m} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

\frac{height _{1} }{2700cm} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

2700*66=56*h _{1}

178200=56h _{1}

3182.1cm=h _{1}

\frac{3182.1cm}{1000cm} = 3.2m

height:3.2m

As long as everything is on level ground with uniform elevation, and everything happens at the same time of day (with the sun at the same height in the sky) ... 

(66cm statue) / (56cm shadow) = (height of tree, meters) / (27m shadow)

Multiply each side of the equation by (27m) :

height of tree = (66 cm) x (27m) / (56cm) = 31.82 meters or <em><u>31.8 meters </u></em>

We are supposed to assume FC and AD is straight line
let's find all the angles


you already see the right angle is 90 degrees, you got that right
striaght line is 180 degrees

90+46+EF=180
136+EF=180
minus 136 both sides
EF=44
now we got another straight line
you did get that A F=46 because it is oposite

notice: AB=BC because same angle designition
so now we use
180+46+2AB=360
2AB=134
divide 2
AB=67=BC
AC=134 degrees
CAE=134+46+44=224
ABD=180 since straight line



a. 90
b. 224
c.134
d. 180

How much fabric is required to cover x buttons in the shape of a circle whose radius is 3x ?
Leviafan [203]

Radius of 1 button = r = 3x

Fabric required to cover 1 button = Area of the circle

= \pi r^{2}

= \pi (3x)^{2}

= 9\pi x^{2}

Total number of buttons = x

Fabric required to cover 1 button = 9\pi x^{2}  

Fabric required to cover x buttons = x(9\pi x^{2} )

=9\pi x^{3}

Hence, fabric required to cover x buttons =9\pi x^{3}  sq. units

The area of the trapezoid
ELEN [110]

Answer:

<h2>A = 82.5 in²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h

b₁, b₂ - bases

h - height

We have b₁ = 10in, b₂ = 5in and h = 11in. Substitute:

A=\dfrac{10+5}{2}\cdot11=\dfrac{15}{2}\cdot11=7.5\cdot11=82.5\ in^2
