Answer:

<h3>x = 6 ft. long shadow</h3><h3></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

its a ratio and proportion:

<u> 15 ft. tall giraffe </u> = <u> 5 ft. tall bird </u>

18 ft. shadow x shadow

15 (x) = 18 (5)

x = 90 / 15

x = 6 ft. long shadow

Answer: k = 55 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

to find J, subtract 122 from 180, you get 58. The total number of degrees is 180. Since L is given as 67, and 67+58=125. Simply subtract 125 from 180 which is 55 degrees
