Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse-angle theorem proves congruency by comparing the respective hypotenuse and an adjacent angle between two triangles. Since the given values here are the hypotenuse (longest side) and an adjacent angle, the HA theorem can be used to prove congruency between the two triangles.

Hope this helped!

to estimate the height of the jin mao tower in shanghai , a tourist sights the top of the tower form a mirror that is 86.7 meter

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The height of the tower = 420.48 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

For better understanding of the solution, see the figure attached below :

Let the height of the tower be x meters

Now, using the laws of reflection : angle of reflection = angle of incidence

Also, both the tower and the tourist are standing parallel to each other

⇒ ∠A = ∠i ( Alternate interior angles are equal)

Similarly, ∠D = ∠r ( Alternate interior angles)

But, ∠i = ∠r

⇒ ∠A = ∠D

Also, the tourist and the tower is perpendicular to the ground surface.

⇒ m∠B = m∠E = 90°

Now, in ΔABC and ΔDEC

∠A = ∠D (Proved above)

m∠B = m∠E = 90°

So, by AA postulate of similarity of triangles, ΔABC ~ ΔDEC

As the sides of similar triangles are proportional to each other

$\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EC}\\\\\implies\frac{1.92}{x}=\frac{0.4}{87.6}\\\\\implies x=\frac{87.6\times 1.92}{0.4}\\\\\bf\implies x = 420.48\textbf{ meters}$
