Answer:

The answer to the question is

30 ° east of Greenwich Mean Time

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we have the given variables

Current Greenwich Mean Time = 10.00 AM

Location of the Sun at the current longitude = zenith

Supposed correct time when clock is at zenith = 12 noon or 12.00 pm

Time difference, or correction required = 10.00 a. m. - 12 p. m. = 2 hours leading

As there are 24 hours in a day one hour of the difference in time is equivalent to 360/24 or 15 ° and as the Sun is already at its zenith at the location then the location is eastwards of Greenwich Mean time that is,

15 ° × 2 = 30 ° east of Greenwich Mean Time

AABC is dilated by a factor of 2 to produce AA'B'C!
lakkis [162]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

in this case, because it is being dilated by a factor of 2 this means that figure A´B´C´ will be double the size of its pre-image ABC.

each side will now be its double which means:

side A´C´= 10

side B´C´= 6

and side A´B´= 8

since the figure is only increasing its sides the angles of the right triangle remain the same.

<A= 37 degrees
