Answer:

30 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The woman is 6 feet tall and her shadow is 3.5 feet tall, as is the flagpole's shadow is 17.5 feet tall making the flagpole 30 feet tall.

Equation: 6/3.5 = 1.74 x 17.5 = 30

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

(I rounded the 1.74 to two places)

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Function (These only work for right triangles):</u>

SOH-CAH-TOA

S = Sine = sin

C = Cosine = cos

T = Tangent = tan

O = Opposite (side)

H = Hypotenuse (side)

A = Adjacent (side)

SOH = sin(angle) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

CAH = cos(angle) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

TOA = tan(angle) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

1. sinQ (Q is the angle) = \frac{14}{50}  = \frac{7}{25} = 0.28

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find side PQ.  14^{2} + PQ^{2}= 50^{2} \\PQ^{2}  = 2304\\PQ = 48

2. cosQ = \frac{48}{50} = \frac{24}{25} = 0.96

3. tanQ = \frac{14}{48}  = \frac{7}{24}  = 0.29

For every ton of paper that is recycled, 17 trees are saved. Discrete or continuous?
dusya [7]
I would say continuous because you can technically cut down half a tree or recycle half a piece of paper

ANTONII [103]
As we know that 
x=x0*[1/2]n
putting the values 
375=3000*[1/2]n
375/3000=<span>[1/2]n
</span>1/8=<span>[1/2]n
simplify
[1/2]3=</span><span>[1/2]n
by cancelling them
so n=3
so it will take 3 minutes
hope it helps</span>
