Answer:  244.95 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This scenario forms the shape of a right angled triangle with the shadow length being the triangle's length and the distance between the end of the shadow to the top of the building being the hypotenuse.

Use Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

250² = 50² + b²

62,500 = 2,500 + b²

b²= 62,500 - 2,500

b² = 60,000

b = √60,000

b= 244.95 feet

Find the area inside the 26m square and outside the circle. Use 3.14 for π. A circle is fully inside a square with sides of leng
pochemuha

Answer:

A(b) = 145,34 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square of side l = 26 m    A(s) = l²      A(s) = (26)²

A(s) = 676 m²

Areaof the circle of radius r = 13  A(c) = π*(r)²  A(c) = π*(13)²

A(c) = 169*π  m²

Then the area outside the circle and inside the square  A(b), is the difference between the area of the square minus the area of the circle, that is:

A(b) = A(s)  -  A(c)  =  676  - 169*π    m²

A(b) = 676  -  530,66  m²

A(b) = 145,34 m²
