Answer:
8 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Height of person = 2metres
Length of person's shadow = 6 meters
Height of flagpole =?
Length of flagpole shadow = 24 meters
Height of person = length of person's shadow
Height of flagpole = length of person's shadow
2 = 6
x = 24
Cross multiply
6x = 48
x = 48 / 6
x = 8 meters
Answer:
The larger acute angle is equal to 50.8 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for both of the acute angles for the purpose of checking our work at the end with angle A being the top angle and angle B being the one on the base of the triangle (that's not the 90 degrees one). Determining whether to use sin/cos/tan comes from SOH-CAH-TOA.
A = cos^-1 (2√6/2√15)
However, you need to move the radical out of the denominator by multiplying √15 to the numerator and denominator. You should come up with (2√90)/30. So,
A = cos^-1 (2√90/30) = 50.768 degrees.
B = sin^-1 (2√90/30) = 39.231 degrees.
Now, we can check the work by adding the 2 angles to 90 and, if it comes to 180, it's right.
cos^-1 (2√90/30) + sin^-1 (2√90/30) + 90 = 180.

Part A)
we know that
<span>scale ----------> inch/4 feet=0.25 in/ft
</span>[scale]=[scale drawing]/[actual]
[actual]=[scale drawing]/[scale]
for <span>length --------> 4 1/2 in ---------> 4.5 in (</span>scale drawing)
[actual]=[4.5]/[0.25]=18 ft
for <span>width ---------> 3 3/8 in</span> ---> (3*8+3)/8 ---> 27/8 in (scale drawing)
[actual]=[27/8]/[0.25]=13.5 ft
the answer part A is
length actual <span>kitchen floor is 18 ft
</span>width actual kitchen floor is 13.5 ft
Part B)
the area of one square in the actual=(1/2)*(1/2)=0.25 ft²
total area gray tiles=0.25*14=3.5 ft²
total area white tiles=0.25*10=2.5 ft²
find <span>how many tiles 2 in by 2 in of each color will he need
1ft</span>²-------------> 144 in²
gray tiles
3.5 ft²---------------> 3.5*144=504 in²
[tiles 2 in by 2 in gray]=504/(2*2)=126 gray tiles
white tiles
2.5 ft²---------------> 2.5*144=360 in²
[tiles 2 in by 2 in white]=360/(2*2)=90 white tiles
the answer Part B) is
126 gray tiles
90 white tiles
