A six meter long ladder leans against a building. If the ladder makes an angle of 60° with the ground. How far up the wall does
jenyasd209 [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. This is a 30-60-90 triangle where the side opposite the 30° is the smallest and represented as x, the side opposite the 60 ° is the middle length at x(sqrt(3)) and the side opposite the 90° is the longest side at 2x. note: sqrt is the square root.

step 2. The ladder is 6m and is the 2x side.

step 3. The wall is across from the 60° side and is the x side.

step 4. if the 2x side is 6m then the x side is 3m.

step 5. The ladder is 3m up the side of the house.

N76 [4]

Answer:

SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

SAS Postulate: "If two sets of corresponding sides on two triangles and there included angle are congruent, then the triangles are similar".

We see that line segments XY-ST and XZ-SR are congruent along with the included angles X and S. Therefore, we can justify that SAS fits the situation.

Mike's car broke down 5 miles from the auto shop. If he can push his car 1,056 feet per hour, how many hours will it take him to
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

It'll take 25 hours to get to the auto shop

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Distance = 5 miles

Speed =1056 feet per hour

Required

How long will it take to the auto shop

This can be solved using Speed's formula;

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Substitute values for Speed and Distance

\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{5 miles}{Time}

1 mile = 5280 feet;

So:

\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{5 * 5280 ft}{Time}

\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{26400ft}{Time}

Cross Multiply

Time * 1056ft = 26400ft * hr

Divide both sides by 1056ft

Time * \frac{1056ft}{1056ft} = \frac{26400ft * hr}{1056ft}

Time = \frac{26400ft * hr}{1056ft}

Time = 25hr

<em>Hence, it'll take 25 hours to get to the auto shop</em>
