1) Given that the apple tree is 4/5 pear tree we can write
Apple Tree size = 4/5 Peartree
Apple tree= 4m
2) So we can write the following expression for that:
So the Pear tree is 5 meters tall, and the apple tree is 4/5*5 = 4 m
40(60/100) 4(6/10) =24/10 = 2.4
Answer:
h = (10 ft)(1.428) = 14.28 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the height of the nest by h. This is the vertical side of a triangle. The horizontal side is 10 ft.
The following relationship is true:
tan 55 degrees = (opposite side) / (adjacent side), and in this case,
tan 55 degrees = h / 10 ft, so that:
h = height of nest = (10 ft)(tan 55 degrees), or
h = (10 ft)(1.428) = 14.28 ft
7/16 is your answer to this problem
