Answer:
2.5477 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the image attached to understand my solution.
BC = height of lamppost.
DE = Julia
AD = shadow of Julia
BD = 2 feet. AD = 5 feet
BA = BD + AD
= 2 + 5 = 7 feet
In ΔABC
tan 20° =
BC = 7 * tan 20°
BC = 2.5477 feet
SO the height of lamppost = 2.5477 feet
Answer:
It is angle k and angle l
Step-by-step explanation:
When opposite sides are given, especially for a right triangle, the longer the length the bigger the angle. The hypotenuse, which is across the right angle is always longest. The shortest side will always have the smallest angle. Check the image if it helps.
