Answer: The height of the tree is  27f t

Step-by-step explanation: We can set up a proportion comparing the height of each object to the length of the shadow.

h/s

h/15=18/10

Cross multiply

10.h= 18*15

10h=270

Use the multiplicative Inverse

10 h/ 10 = <em><u>270 /10 =27</u></em>

What is a positive angle less than 360 degrees that is conterminal with -289 degrees
wel

Answer:

The positive angle that less than 360° and is conterminal with -289° is 71°

Step-by-step explanation:

  • When a terminal of an angle moves anticlockwise, then it makes a positive angle with the positive part of the x-axis
  • When a terminal of an angle moves clockwise, then it makes a negative angle with the positive part of the x-axis
  • To find the positive angle which has the same terminal of a negative angle add the measure of the negative angle by 360°

Let us solve the question

∵ The measure of the angle is -289°

→ Add its measure by 360° to find the positive angle that is conterminal

   with it

∵ The measure of the positive angle = -289° + 360°

∴ The measure of the positive angle = 71°

The positive angle that less than 360° and is conterminal with -289° is 71°
