Answer:
The length of shadow decrease at 0.48 m/s.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance of man from building = x
Thus initially, x = 12
It is given that dx/dt= -1.3 m/s
Let the shadow height = Y
Now solve for the when x=4
from the diagram (triangle) it can be seen similar triangles with similar base/height ratios.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
In a rectangle
• All angles are right angles
• the diagonals are congruent
In Δ WXV the sum of the 3 angles = 180°
∠ WXZ = ∠ XWY = =
= 58°
∠ YXZ = 90° - 58° = 32°
∠ WVZ = 180° - 64° = 116° ( adjacent angles are supplementary )
∠ XWZ = 90° ( by definition of rectangle )
∠ XZY = ∠ WXZ = 58° ( corresponding angles )
