Answer:

  • see below for a diagram
  • 15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephanie is 1.8/1.2 = 1.5 times as tall as her shadow is long. We expect the same is true of the wind turbine.

The wind turbine's shadow is 10 m long, so its height is 1.5·(10 m) = 15 m.

The wind turbine is 15 m tall.

Answer:

x and y =   5√2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 45:45:90 triangle so length of x = length of y.

In this triangle the ratio of the sides is 1:1:√2

Finding length of x and y:

1/√2 = x/10

√2x = 10

x = 10/√2

=  10√2/2

=  5√2.

Find the missing side
dybincka [34]

Answer:

7) 8.94

8) 6.71

Step-by-step explanation:

for both questions, use pythagorean theorem

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

<u>Question 7:</u>

4^{2} + 8^{2} = c^{2}

16 + 64 = c^{2}

80 =  c^{2}

\sqrt{80} = \sqrt{c^{2}}

c = 8.94

<u>Question 8:</u>

6^{2} + 3^{2} = c^{2}

36 + 9 = c^{2}

45 = c^{2}

\sqrt{45} = \sqrt{c^{2} }

c = 6.71
