Multiply the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x.

... (-7/8)x = -5

... (-8/7)(-7/8)x = (-8/7)(-5)

... x = 40/7

TS is the height of a building. PQR is a pole in front of the building. QT is a horizontal cable that supports the pole to the b

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The answer is 65.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since tq is perpendicular to PR then qtsr becomes square

Then

$qr = 30 \: \: \: \: \: and \: qt = 30 \\$

Since the triangle pqt is right angled

Then

$pq = qt \tan(50) = 30 \times \tan(50 ) = 35.75$

Then the height of the pole is equal to

$pq + qr = 35.75 + 30 = 65.75$

Find the area of the rhombus

MAXImum [283]

<h3> Solution :-</h3>

Area of rhombus :-

$\bf \star \: \: \boxed{ \bf \dfrac{d_{1}d_{2}}{2} }$

$\sf \longrightarrow d_{1} = 4 \sqrt{3} + 4 \sqrt{3} = 8 \sqrt{3}$

$\sf \longrightarrow d_{2} = 4 + 4 = 8$

Area of rhombus :-

$: \implies \sf \dfrac{8 \sqrt{3} \times 8 }{2}$

$: \implies \sf 8 \sqrt{3} \times 4$

$: \implies \bf 32 \sqrt{3} \: {m}^{2}$
