Answer:
16m tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance casted by the shadow = 32m = hypotenuse
Angle of elevation = 30 degrees
Required
Height of the building = opposite
Using the SOH CAH TOA identity
sin theta = opp/hyp
sin 30 = x/32
0.5 = x/32
x = 0.5 * 32
x = 16m
Hence the building is 16m tall
Quotient means divide, so the expression would be r/3, I believe
hope it helps
X is approximately equal to 5.7 miles
We know that Sum of Angles in a Triangle is Equal to 180°
Here EBF is a Triangle
⇒ m∠EBF + m∠BEF + m∠EFB = 180°
⇒ 60° + 40° + m∠EFB = 180°
⇒ 100° + m∠EFB = 180°
⇒ m∠EFB = 180° - 100°
⇒ m∠EFB = 80°
As Line m and Line p are Parallel Lines :
Alternate Interior Angles are Equal, here Alternate Interior Angles are m∠BEF and m∠ABE
⇒ m∠BEF = m∠ABE
⇒ m∠ABE = 40°
We know that Vertically Opposite Angles are Equal, Here m∠GFI and m∠EFB are Vertically Opposite Angles.
⇒ m∠GFI = m∠EFB
⇒ m∠GFI = 80°
We can notice that m∠DEB and m∠BEF form a Linear Pair
⇒ m∠DEB + m∠BEF = 180°
⇒ m∠DEB + 40° = 180°
⇒ m∠DEB = 180° - 40°
⇒ m∠DEB = 140°
We can notice that Sum of Angles m∠CBF and m∠EBF and m∠ABE is 180°
⇒ m∠CBF + m∠EBF + m∠ABE = 180°
⇒ m∠CBF + 60° + 40° = 180°
⇒ m∠CBF + 100° = 180°
⇒ m∠CBF = 180° - 100°
⇒ m∠CBF = 80°
We can notice that m∠BFG and m∠EFB form a Linear Pair
⇒ m∠BFG + m∠EFB = 180°
⇒ m∠BFG + 80° = 180°
⇒ m∠BFG = 180° - 80°
⇒ m∠BFG = 100°
We know that Vertically Opposite Angles are Equal, Here m∠BFG and m∠IFE are Vertically Opposite Angles.
⇒ m∠BFG = m∠IFE
⇒ m∠IFE = 100°
