AB = 56 because the bigger triangle is 2 times the smaller one.
mind you that it has two complex roots, or imaginary values.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of all the angles in a triangle=180
let the angles be 2x, 4x and 3x
so, 2x+4x+3x=180
9x=180
x=20
so smallest angle 2x= 2(20)= 40 degrees
Answer:
2) distance = 4 km
Displacement = 4 km east
3) distance = 35 km
Displacement = 5 km north
Step-by-step explanation:
2. He runs for 3 km in the east direction and then stops.. He now runs another 1 km in the same direction then stops.. Thus,
Total distance covered = 3 + 1 = 4 km
Total displacement is how far he is from his starting point = 3 + 1 = 4 km east
3) Runs 20km north and then runs 15 km back from starting point.
Thus;
Total distance covered = 20 + 15 = 35 km
Total displacement is distance from starting point = 20 - 15 = 5 km north
Subtracted because an opposite direction was taken after the 20km back to her starting point.
Answer:
The flagpole's shadow is 16.875 feet longer than the man's shadow
Step-by-step explanation:
The total length of the shadow is expressed by taking its actual length by a factor that depends on the position of the sun which is constant for the man too. The expression is as follows;
Height of the shadow=actual height of the flagpole×factor
where;
length of the flagpole's shadow=22.5 feet
actual height of the flagpole=32 feet
factor=f
replacing;
22.5=32×f
32 f=22.5
f=22.5/32
f=0.703125
Using this factor in the expression below;
Length of man's shadow=actual height of man×factor
where;
length of man's shadow=m
actual height of man=8 feet
factor=0.703125
replacing;
length of man's shadow=8×0.703125=5.625 feet
Determine how much longer the flagpole's shadow is as follows;
flagpoles shadow-man's shadow=22.5-5.625=16.875 feet
The flagpole's shadow is 16.875 feet longer than the man's shadow
