<h3>Answer: D) 5/2</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

The parabola is symmetric around its vertex. This means that the roots are the same horizontal distance away from the vertex. Furthermore, we can apply the midpoint formula on the given roots to find the x coordinate of the vertex.

Find the midpoint of 2 and 3 to get (2+3)/2 = 5/2

Note: 5/2 = 2.5

A tree broken at a height of 5 cm from the ground and it's top touches the ground at a distance of 12 m from base of the tree fi

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The original height of tree is 18 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the correct question is "A tree is broken at the height of 5m from the ground and its top touches the ground at a distance of 12m from the Base of the tree. Find the original height of the tree."

A tree is broken at the height of 5m from the ground.

Let the height of the tree is (x+5) m.

After broken, it will form a right angle triangle with hypotenuse x, base 12m and perpendicular 5 m.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

$hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2$
