Answer:
<h2>Reflection.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The image attached shows a representation of the problem, there you can observe the congruence between triangles.
Also, using the images you can easily deduct the transformation we need to map one triangle onto the other one, we just need to reflect one triangle across and axis that pass through point M, such line acts like a mirror.
Therefore, the right answer is reflection.
Answer:
He stepped back 59.71 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by making 2 triangles. One has 68 degrees as the acute angle at the base of the triangle and the other has 41 degrees as the acute angle at the base of the triangle. The side opposite of said angle on both triangles will be 80, the height of the tree. You're solving for the bottom (horizontal) side for both triangles.
For the triangle with an acute base angle of 68, the formula to solve for the horizontal side is tan(68) = 80/x.
Get x by itself to get 80/tan(68) = x
x = 32.32.
For the next triangle, the equation is the same but the angle is changed to 41.
tan(41) = 80/x
80/tan(41) = x
x = 92.03
Finally, subtract the smaller distance from the larger:
92.03 - 32.32 = 59.71 steps.
