Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6 = b

c= 8

a=?

now u just replace

a^2 + 6^2 = 8^2

a^2 + 32 = 64

a ^2 = 64-32

a^2 = 32

\sqrt a^{2}  = \sqrt32

a     = 5.65685424949

One afternoon, a student who is 5 feet 4 inches tall measured shadows to find the height of a telephone pole. The student's shad
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

19.9875 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is given as:

Shadow of the student/Height of the student = Shadow of the telephone pole/Height of the telephone pole.

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

Shadow of the student = 5ft

Height of the student = 5 feet 4 inches

4 inches to feet

= 4 × 0.0833 feet

= 0.33 feet

Hence: Height of the student = 5 + 0.33 = 5.33 feet

Shadow of the telephone pole = 18 feet 9 inches long

9 inches to feet

= 9 × 0.0833 feet

= 0.75 feet

Hence: Shadow of the telephone pole = 18 + 0.75 = 18.75 feet

Height of the telephone pole= x

Therefore:

5/5.33 = 18.75/x

Cross Multiply

5x = 5.33 × 18.75

x = 5.33 × 18.75/5

x = 19.9875 feet

The height of the telephone pole = 19.9875 feet

The equation:                           6s - 10  =  s

Add  10  to each side:             6s         =  s  +  10

Subtract 's' from each side:    5s         =          10

Divide each side by  5 :            s          =            2
