How can we use theorems about the angles formed by transversals to help ensure that lines are parallel in the design and constru

Answer:

We can use this knowledge in planning of cities

Step-by-step explanation:

The transversal is a line that intersects two or more parallel lines.Angles with similar characteristics are formed when this occurs.

In city planning, streets can be designed to resemble parallel lines with roads that do not meet.However, other roads can be constructed to allow people on the other street to cross to neighboring streets.Such roads allowing this access can be viewed as transversal.

The areas where street roads meet the transversal roads have similar angle characteristics thus could be used for CCTV cameras for surveillance and traffic lights positioning.

Answer:

1.72r²

Step-by-step explanation:

total Rectangle area = 4r*2r = 8r²

total circles area = 2(π r²) = 2*3.14*r² = 6.28r²

then:

the area of the shaded region:

= 8r² - 6.28r²

= (8-6.28)r²

= 1.72r²

If a tree casts a shadow of 25ft at the same time that a 4ft person casts a shadow of 11 1/2 ft, find the height of the tree?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

8.70 ft

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Shadow of a tree as 25 ft
  • Height of a person as 4ft
  • Shadow of the person as 11.5 ft

We are required to determine the height of the tree

<h3>Step 1: Find the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow to the top of the person.</h3>

tan θ = opp/adj

In this case; Opposite side = 4 ft

                    Adjacent side = 11.5 ft

Therefore; tan θ = (4 ft ÷ 11.5 ft)

                  tan θ = 0.3478

                        θ  = tan⁻¹ 0.3478

                       θ  = 19.18°

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the height of the tree</h3>

The angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow of the tree to the top of the tree will 19.18°

Therefore;

Opposite = Height of the tree

Adjacent = 25 ft

Thus;

tan 19.18 ° = x/25 ft

     x = tan 19.18° × 25 ft

        = 0.3478 × 25 ft

        = 8.695

       = 8.70 ft

Therefore, the height of the tree is 8.70 ft

Deciding where to start dividing 948 divided by 7
julia-pushkina [17]
OK  Bctoscano. So first you have to take out the biggest number you can take out, so that would be 910, so 910 <em /><em /><u />divided by 7 is 130 because 700 divided by 7 is 100 and 210 divided by 7 is 30. Now what you have left is 38.  The biggest amount I could take out is 35 so, 35 divided by 7 is 5. Now we have 3 left so the answer is 130 + 5 r.3 so 135 r.3.
