Reflection: the object is reflected (or "flipped") across a line of reflection, which might be the x-axis, y-axis, or some other line. Dilation: the object stays the same shape, but is either stretched to become larger (an "enlargement") or shrunk to become smaller (a "reduction").

Wilbur spends 2/3 of his income, share 1/12, and saves the rest. What part of his income does he save? Give the answer in simple

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

<em><u>1/4 of his income.</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Wilbur spends 2/3 of his income, 1/3 or 4/12 of it is left for other purposes (It is easier if everything has a common denominator of 12). And if he shares 1/12 of that remaining amount, there is 3/12 left. And when we simplify 3/12, we get <u>1/4</u>.

At 3pm, the length of the shadow of a thin vertical pole standing on level ground is the same as the height of the pole. A while

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The height of the pole is 175.97 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pole is x cm,

Also, let the angle of elevation of the sun to the pole at 3 pm is $\theta$

Thus, by the question,

$tan\theta = \frac{\text{ The height of the pole}}{\text{ The height of the shadow}}$

$\implies tan\theta = \frac{x}{x}$ ( at 3pm the height of shadow = height of the pole)

$\implies tan\theta = 1$

$\implies \theta = 45^{\circ}$

Again, according to the question,

When the angle of elevation is $(\theta - 12^{\circ})$ ,

The height of shadow = x + 95,

$\implies tan(45-12)^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}x + 95\times tan33^{\circ}=x$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}x - x = - 95\times tan33^{\circ}$

$\implies -0.3505924068 x = - 61.6937213538$

$x=175.969930202\approx 175.97\text{ cm}$

The Difference BETWEEN the CI and SI on a Certain sum of money for 2 years at 15% per annum is RS.180.Find the sum

klio [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

when the difference between CI and SI given then the sum =

difference (100/r)^2

given difference is Rs . 180

Rate of interest is 15%

sum = 180× (100/15)^2

180×10000/225

= 8000
