Answer:

20.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The object-shadow ratio for the stick= 3÷1.5=2:1

The object-shadow ratio is same for all objects.

Let height of the tree be x

2/1 = x/10.15

x=10.15 * 2=20.3

In this figure, AB || CD and m/1 = 110*. A / What is m/5? 5/6 8/ 7 D Enter your answer in the box.​
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

240°

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a line EF perpendicular to AB and CD passing through M

In △BME 

∠BME+∠MBE+∠BEM=180∘ (Angle sum proprerty)

∠BME+35∘+90∘=180∘∠BME=180∘−125∘∠BME=45∘

In △DMF

∠DMF+∠MDF+∠MFD=180∘ (Angle sum property )

∠DMF+75∘+90∘=180∘∠DMF=180∘−165∘∠DMF=15∘

x=∠DMF+∠BME+∠EMF

x=15∘+45∘+180∘x=240∘
