Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = length of flagpole = 12 ft
AB = length of shadow = 14 ft
BC = length from the top of the flagpole to the end of the shadow = x ft
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x,
x² = AC² + BC²
= 12² + 14²
= 144 + 196
= 340
x = √340
x = 18.4 ft
The answer is b, c, and d
2x+38=180
2x=142 (or x+x=142 from which 2x=142)
x=71
The unknown angles are each 71
You know this answer is logical as, since two sides are 21 it hints that we are looking at an equilateral triangle, which means two of its angles will be the same
