See the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
in the triangle ABC
tan 61=BC/AC-------> BC=AC*tan 61--------> BC=55*tan 61-----> BC=99.22 ft
tall of the tree =BC+CD-----> 99.22+4.5----> 103.72 ft------> 104 ft
the answer is104 ft
Answer:
27 --> 9
48 --> 16
75 --> 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
21 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we would be using the proportion
Shadow /Height
From the question:.
Manny's shadow = 414 feet
Manny's Height = 512 feet
Height of the tree = ? = x
Shadow of the tree = 17 feet
Hence:
414/512 = 17/ x
Cross Multiply
414 × x = 512 × 17
x = 512 × 17/414
x = 21.024154589 feet
x ≈ Approximately = 21 feet
The height of the tree = 21 feet
There are two possibilities, and we don't know which situation is true.
<em>#1).</em> School is in the middle, between home and grandparents.
Home --------- 3/8 ----------- School --------- 2/8 ------- Grandparents .
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 2/8 + 3/8) = 10/8 = <u>1.25 miles</u> .
===========================================
<em>#2):</em> Grandparents house is in the middle, between home and school.
Tasha passes by them on her way to school, and stops there to visit
on her way back home.
Home ------- 1/8 ------- Grandparents ---------- 2/8 ---------- School
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 1/8) = 6/8 = <u>3/4 mile</u> .
I could only answer 14. and it is 138.3
