The answer is 48 feet (D).
Explanation:
To solve this, you must think of the monument and its shadow and Adam and his shadow as a triangle, the person/object being the vertical leg, the shadows being the horizontal leg, and a line connecting them being the hypotenuse. Also, we can assume that these triangles are similar. First, we can set the scale to be 40/5 (the two shadows set a scale because the triangles are similar). Then, we can put x/6 (the actual things are similar, and the scale was established to be building/measurement). Next, we can set the two fractions equal to each other (40/5 = x/6) and solve. We can cross multiply to get 5x = 40 * 6. That goes to 5x = 240. Finally, we can divide by five on each side to get x = 48 feet (D).
Answer:
This is a protractor question if you dont have one then try these on a calculator.
when angle is between two lines we need see where the hypotenuse is in the diagram and where is the adjacent.
And whether the triangle is right angle or not.
Try these
shift sin -1 x sin 9/6 (for opp/hyp)
shift sin -1 (9/6) (for opp/hyp)
shift sin -1 x sin 6/9 (for opp/hyp)
shift sin -1 (6/9) (for opp/hyp)
shift cos -1 x cos 9/6 (for adj/hyp)
shift cos -1 (9/6) (for adj/hyp)
shift cos -1 x cos (6/9) (for adj/hyp)
shift cos -1 (6/9) (for adj/hyp)
shift tan -1 x tan (9/6) ( for opp/adj)
and so on....

Answer:
.3
Step-by-step explanation:
3* 1/10 = .3
.3 is decimal notation
Okay, so basically you are going to use the Pythagorean Theorem which states: If a right triangle has sides a and b and hypotenuse c then a2+b2=c2.
You already have the distance between AC and BC so you want to figure out the distance between AB. All you have to do is plug in the information. If you draw out a picture, it will help you to visualize it.
I believe the answer is 26...
