Answer:

C. 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lamp post has a shadow that's twice as long as it'a actual height. The tree's shadow is 24 feet long, so it would be 24/2, which is 12 feet.

Conver the equation y=2 to polar form. Then solve the resulting equation for r. <br> Thanks :)
maksim [4K]
This is something to memorize

y = r*sin(theta)

so if y = 2, then 

2 = r*sin(theta)

Divide both sides by sin(theta) to get

r = 2/sin(theta)
r = 2csc(theta)
