34 since it is a right angle it is equal to 90
Answer:
the length of the pole is 9.90 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
So what we're dealing with here is a similar triangle situation. Since ML is a midsegment, that means that IL and LJ are congruent. So, IL=LJ=13. This means that the whole side IJ is 26 (13+13=26). We also know that triangle IML and triangle IKJ are similar triangles, so their sides are proportional. This means that we can set up the ratio:
12/13 = x/26
and solve for x.
After multiplying 26 to both sides of the equation, we find that x=24, so KJ=24.
These are independent events so
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
Therefore
P(Both gears fail) = 0.05 * 0.08 = 0.004 or 0.4%
