ah yes mama
Step-by-step explanation:
1 yard is = to 3 feet.
20 yards = to 20 X 3 feet
your answer is 60 feet
<span>Let the height of tree be denoted as AB and the shadow cast by the tree be BE. ABE is the triangle formed the tree, rays and the ground. Let the height of the person be CD and the length of his shadow be DE. CDE is the triangle formed by the person, rays and the ground.
We have two triangles. Both the person and the tree stand vertically over the horizontal ground, therefore they make 90 degrees with the ground. The angle formed at the ground is the same for the both the triangles. Therefore, by AA similarity the two triangles are similar.
We know that if two triangles are similar, then their sides are proportional.
Therefore,
AB/CD =BE/DE
AB/6 = 143/11
AB= (143/11) *6
AB = 78 ft.</span>
Answer:
L = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the Length x and width x - 15 since the width is 15 less than length
Eric needs 70 of fencing in total, the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding all sides
x + x + (x - 15) + (x - 15) = 70 add like terms
4x - 30 = 70 add 30 to both sides
4x = 100 divide both sides by 4
x = 25
