Let us say that x is the real height of the original hut, therefore we can establish the equation:

5 : x = 1.5 : 8

5 / x = 1.5 / 8

 

Solving for x:

x = 5 * 8 / 1.5

x = 40 / 1.5

<span>x = 26.67 ft</span>

Step-by-step solution for: (√2+√10)^2
azamat
Note:  √a * √a  = a
           √a * √b  = √ab

(√2 + √10)²  =  (√2 + √10)(√2 + √10)
                    =  √2(√2 + √10) + √10(√2 + √10)
                    =   √2*√2 + √2*√10 + √10*√2 + √10*√10
                    =       2      + √20  + √20 + 10
                    =      (2 + 10) + (√20 + √20)
                    =        12 +  2√20

√20 = √(4 *5) = √4 * √5 = 2√5

                     =        12 +  2√20  = 12 + 2(2√5)
                     = 12 + 4√5
