Answer:
The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.
A 10-ft post casts a 14-inch shadow.
Each feet has 12 inches, which means that a post with 10 feet will cast a 14/12 = 1.167 ft shadow. How tall is the cell-phone tower with a 119-feet shadow?
10 feet post - 1.167 ft shadow
x feet tower - 119 feet shadow
Applying cross multiplication:
The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.
The answer would be C. (He counted Yolanda's candy as his own).
This is found by multiplying 500 (starting number of candy) and .64 (percentage divided by a hundred). Thjs would guve you 320, which you would then subtract from the starting number of candy (500) to get 180. 180 is Yolanda's number of candy, which gives you the answer.
Answer:
x is 72 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the measure of x, you need to know the sum of the interior angles of the pentagon.
Sum = (n - 2) x 180
Sum = (5 - 2) x 180
Sum = 3 x 180
Sum = 540
Now divide this by 5, the number of sides
540/5 = 108 degrees for each angle of the pentagon.
To find the measure of x, look at the opposite angle, which is 108 degrees
180 - 108 = 72
The measure of angle x is 72 degrees.

Answer:
ΔABC ~ ΔDEC
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : DE║AB
Statements Reasons
1). DE║AB 1). Given
2). ∠CDE ≅ ∠CAB 2). Corresponding angles
[Since DE║AB and AC is the transverse]
3). ∠CED ≅ ∠CBA 3). Corresponding angles
[Since DE║AB and BC is the transverse]
4). ΔABC ~ ΔDEC 4). By AA property of similarity
Hence ΔABC is similar to ΔDEC.
