Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume each shelve takes the same amount of wood to make. So if 30 inches are needed for one shelve, 30*6 inches of wood will be needed for 6 shelves. 30*6=180, so 180 inches of wood is needed to make 6 shelves. However, the question asks for the final answer to be in feet. There are 12 inches in a foot so we can divide by 12 to find the amount of feet needed to make 6 shelves. 180/12=15. Therefore, 15 feet are needed to make 6 shelves.

Step-by-step explanation:

$sin \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: z = 39 \sqrt{2} \\ let \: p \: be \: the \: perpendicular \: \\ \\\therefore \: tan \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:1 = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:p = 39 \\ \\ sin \: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 26 \sqrt{3} \\\\tan\: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: \sqrt{3} = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: y = \frac{39}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: y= \frac{39 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: y = 13 \sqrt{3} \\$
