Answer:

the cell phone tower is 488 ft

Step-by-step explanation:


change 12 in = 1ft

4ft                            x ft

------------------- =   ----------------

1ft  shadow           122 ft shadow


using cross products

4 * 122 = 1 * x

488 = x

The following set of coordinates most specifically represents which figure? (−5, 6), (−1, 8), (3, 6), (−1, 4) (6 points) Paralle
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Rhombus

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are A(−5, 6), B(−1, 8), C(3, 6), D(−1, 4).

We use the distance formula to find the length of AB.

|AB|=\sqrt{(-1--5)^2+(8-6)^2}

|AB|=\sqrt{16+4}

|AB|=\sqrt{20}

The length of AD is

|AD|=\sqrt{(-1--5)^2+(6-4)^2}

|AD|=\sqrt{16+4}

|AD|=\sqrt{20}

The length of BC is:

|BC|=\sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(8-6)^2}

|BC|=\sqrt{16+4}

|BC|=\sqrt{20}

The length of CD is

|CD|=\sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(6-4)^2}

|CD|=\sqrt{16+4}

|CD|=\sqrt{20}

Since all sides are congruent the quadrilateral could be a rhombus or a square.

Slope of AB=\frac{8-6}{-1--5}=\frac{1}{2}

Slope of BC =\frac{8-6}{-1-3}=-\frac{1}{2}

Since the slopes of the adjacent sides are not negative reciprocals of each other, the quadrilateral cannot be  a square. It is a rhombus

A scale drawing has a scale of 0.25 in. : 12 ft. Find the length on the drawing for an actual length of 15 ft.
lesya [120]

If 0.25 in on a drawing is 12 ft in real life, than 1 in on the drawing is 48 ft in real life.

Just divide 15 by 48

15/48=0.3125

So the length of 15 in real life to a drawing is 0.3125 inches.
