Use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 15^2 = 25^2
a^2 + 225 = 625
a^2 = 400
a = 20
Answer: 20 cm

You would have to find the proportionality of the two. If his shadow is 3 feet long, and the tree's shadow is 9 that means it is proportioned by 3. So the height of the tree would be 15.
Answer:
I am pretty sure that it is C
Step-by-step explanation:
A 1,3 so 3 < 3 no not true

D 4,10 10<12 Yes 10<5 NOOPPPPPEEEE
Answer:
a). ∠D = 56°
b). AD = √13
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) From the figure attached, ABCD is a trapezoid with parallel sides AB and CD. We have to find the measure of ∠D from the given figure.
From triangle ADE,
D = 
D = 56.31
D ≈ 56°
Therefore, measure of ∠D is 56°.
(b). Now by applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔADE,
AD² = AE² + DE²
= 3² + 2²
AD² = 9 + 4
AD = √13
Length of AD is √13 in.
