Answer:

height = 63  m

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the monument is a triangle. The triangle is a right angle triangle. The triangular monument is sitting on a rectangular pedestal that is 7 m high and 16 m long.  The longest side of the triangular monument is 65 m . The longest side of a right angle triangle is usually the hypotenuse. The adjacent side of the triangle which is the base of the triangle sitting on the rectangular pedestal is 16 m long.

Since the triangle  formed is a right angle triangle, the height of the triangular monument can be gotten using Pythagoras's theorem.

c² = a² + b²

where

c is the hypotenuse side while side a and b is the other sides of the right angle triangle.

65² - 16² = height²

height² = 4225  - 256

height² = 3969

square root both sides

height = √3969

height = 63  m

a person who weighs 120 lb on Earth would weigh 45 1/5 pounds on Mars set up a proportion to determine how much a 90 pound perso
Lunna [17]
Weight on Mars for a 90lb person: 34.05lbs

Weight on Mars : Weight On Earth/91.8m/s^2 • 3.711m/s

Earths Force : 91.8m/s^2

Mars Gravitational Force : 3.711m/s

So an object or person on Mars would weigh 37.83% its weight on earth. Therefore, a person would be much lighter on mars. A person is about 62.17% heavier on earth than on Mars.
