Answer:
The height of the wall is 9.17ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the ladder is 10ft
Distance from the foot of the ladder to the wall is 4ft
The height of ladder is unknown.
To solve this question, you'll require a pictorial illustration of the situation. Kindly check attached document for that.
Since it's a right angle triangle, we have two sides with one sides unknown, we can use pythagorean theorem to find the third side.
The hypothenus (x) is 10ft
The adjacent is (y) 4 ft
The opposite (z) (height of the wall) is unknown.
X² = Y² + Z²
10² = 4² + Z²
100 = 16 + Z²
Z² = 100 - 16
Z² = 84
Z = √(84)
Z = 9.165 = 9.17ft
The height of the wall is 9.17ft
I've been waiting for someone to ask this question. It's one of my favorite questions to answer.
percent means out of 100 so 1% = 1/100 and 40%=40/100 or 1/25
so for percent of a number, 'of' means multiply so 40% of 500= 40/100 times 500 or 20000/100 or 200
if you multiply a fraction by its recipricol (the number fliped upside down) the you will get 1 so if you multiply 1/2 by 2/1 then you will get 1
thus
percent is out of 100 so 1%=1/100 25%=25/100
if you represent 45 out of something as 45/x then you multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction that is supposed to be equal (1/2 =2/4) then you will get 1
so 45/x times reciprocal of 100/25 then you will get 1/1 or 4500/25x
so you divide to find x and get 180
so 45 is 25% of 180
The following is extra
as stated above 'of' can be taken as multiply so
45 is 25% of 180 can be rewriten as
45=25/100 times 180
but we don't know that 180 is the answer so we replace it with x then solve for x
Similar, so the dimentions and thus the area should be in proprotion
bigger one is 4 times of smaller one
96=4 times smaller
divide b 4
24=smaller
smaller=24 square cm
Answer: D. 50
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are always 180 degrees
80 +2x= 180
2x= 180 - 80
x= 100/2
x= 50
