Answer: <em>A. 241 feet</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The figure shows two rectangular triangles. </em>

<em>These triangles are similar since they have two identical angles: </em>

<em>the first angle is 90 degrees; </em>

<em>the second angle is equal because the law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. </em>

<em>The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of REFLECTION.</em>

<em>Let's make the proportion:</em>

<em />\dfrac{4}{273} =\dfrac{5}{x} \\\\x=\dfrac{273 \cdot 5}{4} =341.25 \: (feet)\\<em />

<em>It takes a minimum of 100 feet for a parachute to open and safely land without injury, so:</em>

<em>341.25 - 100 = 241.25 (feet)</em>

<em>241.25 ≈ 241 (feet)</em>

Lunna [17]

Answer:

See the attached figure 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as shown at the attached figure 1.

given: The garden is a right triangle with base 10 m and height 15 m.

We need to draw the garden such that 1 unit on the grid represents 2 m.

So the scale factor is 1 unit = 2 m

base = 10 m = 10/2 = 5 units

height = 15 m = 15/2 = 7.5 units

So, the garden on the grid will be a right triangle with base 5 units  and height 7.5 units.

See the attached figure.
