So they're proportional.
This means that the 2 triangles are exactly the same BUT the right one is smaller than the other, so all measurements are smaller too.
So to find the distance, you need to find the scale factor.
Think of it like this: 82m becomes 73.8m, and 92m becomes 82.8m.
Find the scale factor by finding the ratio.
73.8/82 = 9/10 or 0.9
You could do the same thing with the other two numbers too (92/82.8), gives the same answer.
Times the ratio by the distance of the bigger triangle:
0.9 x 47 = 42.3m
I don’t even know but i need points so lol
Answer:
I love Math anyways
the ans is in the picture with the steps
(hope it helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)
Step-by-step explanation:
Take a look at the diagram below.
This problem looks like a great candidate for using the Law of Cosines.
If you know two sides, you can find the third side from the angle opposite or vice versa. Should the sides be a, b, and c, and their opp. angles A, B, and C...
a² + b² - 2ab(cosC) = c²
Let's plug in what we know...a = 55, b = 25, and m<C = 25".
55² + 25² - 2(55)(25)(cos(25")) = c²
One thing to note is that our angle measure is in <em />seconds. Unless you're using Google's built in calculator, you'll wind up having to convert to degrees. 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in a degree...blahblahblah.
Anyways, cos(25") comes out to be practically 1. (0.99999993)
Let's get evaluating.
3025 + 625 - 2750(1) = c²
3025 + 625 - 2750 = c²
900 = c²
30 = cThe tree is
30 meters from the fence post.
