Similar triangles have equal angles. I mean, if two triangles
are similar, then the angles of one triangle are the same as
the angles of the other one.
The triangle in the question has angles of 20° and 40°.
The angles of every triangle add up to 180°, so we know
that the third angle has to be 120°
If another triangle is similar to this one, then the other one
also has angles of 20°, 40°, and 120°.
Answer:
use the equation y2-y1/x1-x2 or the equation mx+b so 4x is the slope and 8 is the intercept...can u give me brainliest please and ill asure u of my fast response always
Answer:
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
Step-by-step explanation:
The doc file displays the triangle formed from the illustration. x is the height of the street light. The distance from the gentle man to the street light is 10 ft. He has a height of 5.6 ft and the shadow formed on the ground is 24 ft long. The height of the street light can be calculated below.
The length of the tip of the shadow to the base of the street light is 34 ft. Similar triangle have equal ratio of their corresponding sides .
ab = 5.6 ft
The ratio of the base sides = 24/34
The ratio of the heights = 5.6/x
The two ratio are equal Therefore,
24/34 = 5.6/x
24x = 5.6 × 34
24x = 190.4
divide both side by 24
x = 190.4/24
x = 7.93333333333
x ≈ 8 ft
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
