A pole that is 3.2m tall casts a shadow that is 1.29m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 39.25m long.
How tall is the tower? Round your answer to the nearest meter.
1 answer:
Set up a ratio of height over shadow length:
3.2/1.29 = X/39.25
Cross multiply:
1.29x = 3.2 * 39.25
Simplify:
1.29x = 125.6
Divide both sides by 1.29:
x = 97.364 meters
Round to the nearest meter = 97 meters

Answer:
.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
75 is the length of the third side
3 + 2 + 1 = 6
270 ÷ 6 = 45
45 × 3 = 135
45 × 2 = 90
45 × 1 = 45
3 : 2 : 1
135 : 90 : 45
