It would be $100 if he works for eight hour hours if it wasn’t overtime but since it’s overtime and he works half of the amount it would be 50

A photographer is 6 feet tall and cast a shadow that is 2 feet long. He is photographing a palm tree with a shadow that is 7 fee

Novay_Z [31]

Answer: The height of the tree is 21 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can assume that the angle at which the sun impacts the photographer and the tree to be the same angle.

Then we can think in both cases as triangles rectangles, where the height is a cathetus, and the shadow is the other cathetus.

Then we will have a relationship like:

Tg(angle) = shadow/height

height = shadow/Tg(angle)

Now, because for both triangles we have the same angle, then Tg(angle) will be the same number for both cases, and we can just think of it as constant K

Tg(angle) = K

Then we have the equation:

Height = Shadow/K

We know that the photographer is 6ft tall, and his shadow is 2 ft long, we can replace those two things in the above equation and find the value of k:

6ft = 2ft/K

K = 2ft/6ft = (1/3)

Now we know that the shadow of the tree is 7ft long, then the height will be:

height = 7ft/(1/3) = 7ft*3 = 21ft

The tree is 21 ft tall.

Neil wants to join three pieces of metal to form a right triangle. which of the following lengths could be used? please use step

vichka [17]

Answer: G. 12.5, 7.5, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the lengths of metal that could be used to form the tight angle triangle, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

The hypotenuse is the longest side while the opposite and adjacent sides are the shorter side. Therefore,

F.

8² = 4² + 4²

64 = 16 + 16 = 32

A right angle triangle cannot be formed because they are not equal.

G.

12.5² = 7.5² + 10²

156.25 = 56.25 + 100 = 156.25

A right angle triangle can be formed because they are equal.

H.

23² = 11² + 9²

529 = 121 + 81 = 202

A right angle triangle cannot be formed because they are not equal.

J.

96² = 12.5² + 6²

9216 = 156.25 + 36 = 192.25

A right angle triangle cannot be formed because they are not equal.

Please help! Segment QR is tangent to circle P at point Q. What is the measure of angle PQR? A.) 37 degrees B.) 53 degrees C.) 9

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Correct option: C) 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a tangent segment to a circle, the angle made with the radius of the circle and the tangent segment is always a right angle, that is, 90 degrees. In other words, the radius and the tangent segment are always perpendicular.

If QR is tangent to the circle P, and PQ is the radius of the circle, the segment PQ is perpendicular to the segment QR, so the angle PQR is equal 90 degrees.

Correct option: C)
