Height of the kite is = 36 inches.

Width of the kite is = 30 inches

One of the ways to find the area is to draw a vertical line to break the kite into two equal triangles. Mark the base as 36 inches and height as 15 inches .

Now we will use the formula area=\frac{1}{2}*base*height to find the area of each triangle. Then we will add both the areas to find the area of the kite.

Area of 1 triangle = \frac{1}{2}*36*15 = 270 square inches

Area of the 2nd triangle is also = 270 square inches

Hence, area of the kite = 270+270 = 540 square inches

A pole that is 3.1m tall casts a shadow that is 1.46m long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 36.75m lo
Mademuasel [1]
You have to find the angle of sunlight and the pole , which then cast a shadow
length of the pole is equal to 3.1m
creating a hypotenuse of 4.52m
the angle will be
[email protected] = opposite side / hypotenuse
= 1.46/4.52
= 0.32 that's 18.66 °
now for the building sin18.66° = opposite/hypotenuse
0.32 = 36.75/ hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 114.84 m
thus using Pythagoras theorem
114.84*114.84 = 36.75*36.75 + x^2
which comes around = 108.8 roughly 109 metres long

In an on-line survey, a school learns that 77 of 100 parents prefer to receive the newsletter electronically. How many paper new
Kay [80]
77% of the school want electronic newsletters, so 23% of the school want physical paper newsletters.

77% of 650 is 500.5.
23% of 650 is 149.5.

650/100 = 6.5
6.5x77 = 500.5
6.5x23 = 149.5

It's best to round that figure up to 150 as there will not be a parent who only needs half of the newsletter.

Which is the correct solution for the following inequality: 9 ≤ 4x + 1 < 21
Gwar [14]

Answer:

2<=x<5

Step-by-step explanation:

first subtract one from all pieces, then divide by four. because you never divide by a negative so switching of sides is needed. Two is less than or equal to x which is less than five.
