Answer:
x = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles labeled with the pink x are the same. Line V and Line X are parallel and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel.
We know the 3 angles inside the triangle and the sum of the angles of a triangle are 180
x+x+ 2x = 180
4x= 180
4x/4 = 180/4
x = 45
Answer:
3 metres
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw this out, we'll see that there are actually two similar right triangles (see attachment), which means that we can set up a proportion.
The height of the lookout tower corresponds to the height of the wooden column, while the shadow of the lookout tower corresponds to the shadow of the wooden column. We can then write:
(height of lookout tower) / (shadow of tower) = (height of column) / (shadow of column)
16 / 12 = 4 / x , where x is the shadow / unknown we want to find
Cross-multiply:
16x = 48
x = 3
The answer is thus 3 metres.
