The answer is 36 feet. If you divide 7 by 6, you'd get <span>1.16666666667. This tells you by what number the shadow will have been larger that the object. So if you divide the height of the shadow of the eucalyptus tree by 1.16666666667, you get an answer of 36 feet.

What is the value of a?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Actually, the answer is not A, if you're saying A is the first choice above.  That's incorrect.  You will need to use the Geometric mean for right triangles here to figure out what the value of a is.  We will use this form: \frac{YZ}{WZ} = \frac{WZ}{XZ}.  We have a value for YZ of 3; side a is XZ.  That means in order to solve this we need WZ, which we can find using pythagorean's theorem.  3^2 + 4^2 = c^2 and 9 + 16 = c^2 and c = 5.  Now we fill in accordingly: \frac{3}{5}= \frac{5}{XZ}.  Cross-multiply to get 3XZ=25 and side XZ is \frac{25}{3}.  XZ is 25/3 and YZ is 3, so 25/3 - 3 = XY.  That means that XY (side a) = 16/3 or 5 1/3, choice B, or the second one down.

A triangle has sides with lengths of 8 millimeters, 15 millimeters, and 17 millimeters. Is it a right triangle?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this answer, use the pythagoras theorem. the pythagoras theorem states that a² + b² = c².

to see if this is a right angled triangle, we will use this formula, as the pythagoras theorem only works for right angled triangles.

we are going to work out c, which is always the hypotenuse. the hypotenuse is the longest side of a triangle, that is larger than the other values. we know that the hypotenuse of this triangle is 17, so let’s see if that’s the answer we get.

calculation:

a² + b² = c²

a = 8 millimetres

b = 15 millilitres

c = ?

8² + 15² = c²

64 + 225 = c²

64 + 225 = 289.

289 = c²

√289 = c

√289 = 17.

the pythagoras theorem correctly identified the length of the hypothenuse. as i said earlier, this theorem only works on right angled triangles, therefore, this triangle is right angled.
