This will solved using the concept of proportionality:
(height of the cliff)/(height of the pole)=(base of the cliff)/(length from base of pole to the rope)
thus, let the height of the cliff be x, plugging the values in the formula we obtain:
x/6=86/7
hence solving for x we get
x=(86×6)/7
x=73.71 ft
What are the side lengths of the trapezoid lol
By cutting each corner we have that the resulting dimensions are:
27 - 2x
18 - 2x
Height = x
Therefore, the volume of the box in terms of the variable x, is given by:
V (x) = (x) * (27-2x) * (18-2x)
Answer:
The volume of the box in terms of x is:
(27-x) (18-x) x
I think the answer is 1.97 hope it helps you
