Answer:
36 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The pole's shadow is 6 times the length of the man's shadow, so the pole is 6 times as high as the man.
6 × 5'11" = 30'66" = 35'6" ≈ 36 ft
Answer:
2√2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>By </u><u>using </u><u>trigonometry,</u>
sin 45° = x/4
x = 4sin 45°
x = 2√2
<u>By </u><u>using </u><u>Pythagorean</u><u> </u><u>theorem</u><u>,</u>
Since you know that it is an isosceles triangle and it's also a right-angled triangle,
4² = x² + x²
16 = 2x²
x² = 8
x = √8
= 2√2
3(n - 5) = 24
Distributive property
3*n = 3n
3*5 = 15
3n - 15 = 24
+ 15 +15
3n = 39
3n/3 = 39/3
x = 39/3
x = 13
Answer: x = 13
