Make each known side into a ratio like so...
75/6
(Because 75 is the shadow casted by the building, and 6 is the shadow casted by sarah)
and 50/x
(50 is how tall the building is and sarah's height is what needs to be found)
Therefore,
75 50
---- -----
6 x
Do cross products;
50 x 6 = 75 x X
300 = 75x
Divide by 75
x = 4ft
Answer: 13 cm/s , B on Edgenuity
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the right answer would be 13
Answer:
the length and width . Round to the nearest tenth are 8.8 inches and 3.8 inches respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area A of a rectangle is the product of the length L and width W. This may be expressed mathematically as
A = L * W
As such, given that the length is 5 inches more than the width,
L = W + 5
33 = W(W + 5)
W² + 5W - 33 = 0
Using the formula method which states that
s = -b±√(b²-4ac)/2a
W = -5 ± √5² - 4(1)(-33)/2
= -5 ± 12.53/2
= 7.53/2 (since length cannot be negative)
= 3.755 inches
L = 3.755 + 5
= 8.755 inches
I use the sin rule to find the area
A=(1/2)a*b*sin(∡ab)
1) A=(1/2)*(AB)*(BC)*sin(∡B)
sin(∡B)=[2*A]/[(AB)*(BC)]
we know that
A=5√3
BC=4
AB=5
then
sin(∡B)=[2*5√3]/[(5)*(4)]=10√3/20=√3/2
(∡B)=arc sin (√3/2)= 60°
now i use the the Law of Cosines
c2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab cos(C)
AC²=AB²+BC²-2AB*BC*cos (∡B)
AC²=5²+4²-2*(5)*(4)*cos (60)----------- > 25+16-40*(1/2)=21
AC=√21= 4.58 cms
the answer part 1) is 4.58 cms
2) we know that
a/sinA=b/sin B=c/sinC
and
∡K=α
∡M=β
ME=b
then
b/sin(α)=KE/sin(β)=KM/sin(180-(α+β))
KE=b*sin(β)/sin(α)
A=(1/2)*(ME)*(KE)*sin(180-(α+β))
sin(180-(α+β))=sin(α+β)
A=(1/2)*(b)*(b*sin(β)/sin(α))*sin(α+β)=[(1/2)*b²*sin(β)/sin(α)]*sin(α+β)
A=[(1/2)*b²*sin(β)/sin(α)]*sin(α+β)
KE/sin(β)=KM/sin(180-(α+β))
KM=(KE/sin(β))*sin(180-(α+β))--------- > KM=(KE/sin(β))*sin(α+β)
the answers part 2) areside KE=b*sin(β)/sin(α)side KM=(KE/sin(β))*sin(α+β)Area A=[(1/2)*b²*sin(β)/sin(α)]*sin(α+β)
