Answer:

5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

H= -16t2 + 400

Hit ground

H=0

0 = -16t2 + 400

0 = -16 ( t2 - 25)

-16

t2 -25 = 0

(t + 5)(t - 5) = 0

t + 5 = 0

- 5 -5

t = -5

t - 5 = 0

+ 5 +5

t = -5

t = 5

5 seconds to hit the ground

Alexxx [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I would work out the missing angle:

25° + 90° (right-angle) = 115°

180° - 115° = 65°

The missing angle is 65°.

-I'm too dumb and don't remember how to work out the rest but I hope I helped a bit

the figures above are similar. Find the missing length . show your work. 1. is 5" x 3" the other is 3" by ?
Oxana [17]
If one is 5"x3", and the other having the same orientation is 3"x?, then
by similar figures, 
5/3=3/x
cross multiply,
5x=3*3
x=9/5=1.8"

With the original figure, it is possible to validate the above answer.
