Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- The pyramid of Khafre measured 143.5 meters high.
- The pyramid of Menkaure measured 65.5 meters high.
<u>The difference in the heights of the two pyramids:</u>
- d = 143.5 m - 65.5 m
- d = 78 m
Answer:
420 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
You would have to be infinitely far away from a sphere in order to see exactly 50% of its surface all at the same moment. Using simple geometry, you can prove that an observer that is a distance d away from the surface of a sphere with radius R can only see a percent area A of the sphere's surface as given by the equation:
A = 50%/(1+R/d)
Where A is the area seen,
R is the earth's radius 4000 miles
And D is the distance above the earth 200 miles
50% = 0.5 in fraction
Substituting values we have
A = 0.5(1 + 4000/200)
A = 0.5(1 + 20) = 0.5 x 21
A = 10.5%
10.5% of 4000 miles = 420 miles.
Answer:
y-4=3.1(x-1)
or y-1.6=3.1(x-1.4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 3.25; y = 5.5; angle measures are (cw from bottom left): 96, 84, 96
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles above the horizontal line form a linear pair, so they are supplementary. Their measures add to 180 deg. That let's you find the value of x.
28x - 7 + 24x + 18 = 180
52x + 11 = 180
52x = 169
x = 169/52
x = 3.25
Now use the lower left angle and the upper right angle. They are vertical angles, so they are congruent. That allows you to solve for y.
12y + 30 = 24x + 18
We know that x = 3.25.
12y + 30 = 24(3.25) + 18
12y + 30 = 78 + 18
12y = 66
y = 66/12
y = 5.5
I don't know what the problem is asking for since you don't show.
x = 3.25; y = 5.5; angle measures are (cw from bottom left): 96, 84, 96
