Answer:

  25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 15 feet and 20 feet can be found using the Pythagorean theorem:

  h^2 = 20^2 +15^2

  h^2 = 400 +225 = 625

  h = √625 = 25

The distance from the shadow tip to the flag pole tip is 25 feet.

Answer:

<h2>39.94 cm</h2>

Solution,

ABCD is a rectangle.

Given,

AC= 64 cm

AB= 50 cm

To find: Value of other side of TV

since, ABCD is a rectangle

<B= 90°

<h3>Using Pythagorean theorem:</h3>

{ac}^{2}  =  {ab}^{2}  +  {bc}^{2}  \\  {64}^{2}  =  {50}^{2}  +  {bc}^{2}  \\  {bc}^{2}  =  {64}^{2}  -  {50}^{2}  \\  {bc}^{2}  = 4096 - 2500 \\  {bc}^{2}  = 1596 \\ bc =  \sqrt{1596}  \\ bc = 39.94 \: cm

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..
