The ratio of the height (h) of the streetlight to its distance to the end of Laura's shadow is the same as the ratio of Laura's height to her distance from the end of her shadow.
.. h/(12+9) = 5'4"/9
.. h = (21/9)*5'4" = 12 4/9 feet
.. h = 12 ft 5 1/3 inches
The streetlight is 12 ft 5 1/3 inches tall.
It's reflection; it's not translation
so answer is the last one.
d. No; it is one reflection after another with respect to the two parallel lines.
hope it helps
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
Answer: 8/15</h3>
Work Shown:
x = (1/3) divided by (5/8)
x = (1/3) * (8/5)
x = (1*8)/(3*5)
x = 8/15
<h3>
Answer: x = 65.4</h3>
==================================================
Work Shown:
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(x) = 5/12
x = arccos(5/12)
x = 65.375681647836 which is approximate
x = 65.4 after rounding to one decimal place
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. The arccosine function is the same as the inverse cosine function (shortened to
).
