Answer:
The distance between the end of the ramp and the bottom of the platform is about 9.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
use the pythagorean theorem (a²+b²=c²) to solve
a and b are the legs, c is the hypotenuse
plug in given values:
2² + x² = 10²
solve for x:
x² + 4 = 100
x² = 96
x ≈ 9.80
<span>a=7b+8c+9d-10
a = 8c + 16d - 10
solve for c then
8c = a - 16d + 10
c = (</span>a - 16d + 10) / 8
or
c = a/8 - 2d + 5/4
X^2+15^2=25^2
X^2+225=625
Isolate X
X^2=400
Take the square root on both sides
X=positive and negative 20 but in this case the negative is thrown out because you can't have a negative side
Answer: 20
Idk this answer because no triangles are shaded.
