Answer:

26.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a shadow of a building is 26 m. The distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 37 m. Find the height of the building.

We solve the above question using Pythagoras theorem

c² = a² + b²

Where

c = Longest part of the triangle = 37 m

a = Height of the triangle = ?

b = Length of the shadow = 26 m

Hence:

37² = a² + 26²

a² = 37² - 26²

a = √37² - 26²

a = √(693)

a = 26.324893162m

Approximately = 26.3 m

The product of x and the sum of 6 and 8 times the square of x
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

x(6 + 8x²) or 6x + 8x³.

Step-by-step explanation:

"The square of x" can be represented by x² and 8 times that would be 8 * x² or 8x². The sum of 6 and 8x² can be represented by 6 + x² and the product of x and 6 + x² can be represented by x * (6 + 8x²) or x(6 + 8x²) which simplifies to 6x + 8x³.

Best explained and correct answer gets brainliest!
mezya [45]
The answer is B because C and D are not true. Angle-Angle theorem does not prove congruency. Hypotenuse-Leg does because having a hypotenuse means that the triangle is a right angle triangle, which means that 2 sides and an angle are congruent in the triangles. By Side-Side-Angle Theorem, the triangles are congruent.
