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

Answer:

Right angle triangle goes to 15m, 8m, 17m

Step-by-step explanation:

Square root of 15^2 + 8^2 is 17

(The use of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 - Pythagoras's Theorem)

So, 10m ,11m ,15m isn't a right angle triangle

Hope this helps!
