Answer:

12 feet ladder

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of 12 ft ladder :

Using Pythagoras :

Tan θ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Tan 57 = h / 12

1.5398649 * 12 = 18.48 feets

For 16 feet ladder :

Tan θ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Tan 30 = h / 16

0.5773502 * 16 = 9.24 feets

18.48 > 9.24

Hence, he'll climb the 12 feets ladder to the higher height

The difference between an observational study and an experiment is that:
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

An experiment is a study carried out in a controlled environment where the person undertaking the research hopes to understand cause and effect between the independent and dependent variables. An example of a experiment is the palovian experiment

The independent variable is the variable that the person carrying out an experiment changes or manipulates. the independent variable usually have a direct effect on the dependent variable

The dependent variable is the variable that is being measured in an experiment. It is usually affected by the independent variable

Observational study is the study where the researcher observes and measures cause and effect between independent and dependent variables without trying  to control or influence the population

01. Se tienen los angulos consecutivos AOB, BOC y COD. se cumple m&amp; AOC=125° m <br>​
Citrus2011 [14]

La diferencia entre los ángulos <em>AOB</em> y <em>COD</em> del sistema de tres ángulos <em>consecutivos</em> es igual a 25°.

La medida del ángulo BOC pertenenciente al sistema de tres ángulos consecutivos es igual a 20°.

<h3>Cómo analizar tres ángulos consecutivos</h3>

Por la geometría Euclídea conocemos que un conjunto de ángulos cuando comparten entre cada par de ángulos vecinos comparten el mismo vértice y la misma semirrecta.

De acuerdo con el enunciado, tenemos las siguientes condiciones:

∠AOB + ∠BOC = 125°   (1)

∠BOC + ∠COD = 100°  (2)

Por (1) y (2) tenemos las siguiente identidad:

∠AOB - 25° = ∠COD

∠AOB - ∠COD = 25°

La diferencia entre los ángulos <em>AOB</em> y <em>COD</em> del sistema de tres ángulos <em>consecutivos</em> es igual a 25°. \blacksquare

En el segundo caso, tenemos el siguiente sistema:

∠AOB = ∠BOC + ∠COD     (3)

∠AOB + ∠BOC - ∠COD = 40°     (4)

Por (3) y (4) tenemos la siguiente identidad:

2 · ∠BOC = 40°

∠BOC = 20°

La medida del ángulo BOC pertenenciente al sistema de tres ángulos consecutivos es igual a 20°. \blacksquare
