The most appropriate choice for similarity of triangles will be given by -
Speed of tip of the shadow of woman = 6 ft/s
What are similar triangles?
Two triangles are said to be similar, if the corrosponding angles of the triangles are same and the corrosponding sides of the triangles are in the same ratio.
Here,
The diagram has been attached here
Let the distance of woman from the pole be x ft and the distance of tip of the shadow to the pole be y ft.
Height of street light = 18 ft
Height of woman = 6ft
The two triangles are similar [As height of woman is parallel to the height of pole]
To find the speed, we have to differentiate both sides with respect to time 't'
Speed of tip of her shadow = 6 ft

Answers:
- The lengths of sides PQ and RS are <u> 13 </u>
- The lengths of sides QR and SP are <u> </u><u>20 </u>
This is a 13 by 20 rectangle.
============================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the drawing below.
Let x be the length of side SP. Since we're dealing with a rectangle, the opposite side is the same length. Side QR is also x units long.
We're told that RS = SP - 7 which is the same as saying RS = x-7
We also know that PQ = x-7 as well because PQ is opposite side RS.
In short, we have these four sides in terms of x
- PQ = x-7
- QR = x
- RS = x-7
- SP = x
as shown in the drawing. The four sides add up to the perimeter of 66.
PQ+QR+RS+SP = perimeter
PQ+QR+RS+SP = 66
(x-7)+x+(x-7)+x = 66
4x-14 = 66
4x = 66+14
4x = 80
x = 80/4
x = 20
Use this x value to find the unknown side lengths.
- PQ = x-7 = 20-7 = 13
- QR = x = 20
- RS = x-7 = 20-7 = 13
- SP = x = 20
In short, this is a 13 by 20 rectangle.
-----------------
Check:
perimeter = side1+side2+side3+side4
perimeter = PQ+QR+RS+SP
perimeter = 13+20+13+20
perimeter = 33+33
perimeter = 66
The answer is confirmed.
A man's inheritance money = $1200
Given :
He shared his inheritance between his 3 sons in the ratio 1:3:6
Then, the money the first son got :
▪︎Thus, the first son inherited $120.
Money the second son got :
▪︎Thus, the second son inherited $360.
Money the third son got :
▪︎Thus, the third son inherited $720.
We know that :
The largest share = $720
The smallest share = $120
Difference between the largest and smallest share :
<h3> ●=> Therefore :</h3>
▪︎<em>The difference between the largest and smallest share = 600</em>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
P is an independent variable, therefore making M a dependent variable.
B and D are not it.
When plugging in P in choice A, M has a different answer than in the list.
A is not it.
When pluggin in P in choice C, M has the same answers as in the list.
C is the answer
Answer:
No, he is not correct
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the unit rate you need to .60 by 4. you will get 2.4, which is the
unit rate. he rides his bike 2.4 mph.
