Answer:
Given the 2 values, height and the base, of these 2 triangles, we can assume that they are similar (meaning they share the same angles) as we have no other information to determine the height of the tree.
Therefore, if these triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are proportional. In other words, PZ/RT = QZ/ST or RT/PZ=ST/QZ
Hence, if we find the ratio of this, we can use it to find the side <em>h</em>
<em>QZ/ST=PZ/RT</em>
<em>48/12=PZ/4</em>
<em>PZ/4=48/12</em>
<em>(PZ/4)3=48/12</em>
<em>PZ(3)/12=48/12</em>
<em>48/3=16</em>
16=PZ.

They are the primary producers at the base of the food chain.
The <span>line determined by ( -4 , 3 ) and ( 6 , 3 ) has the slope

m = ------- = 0.

Normally the slope of a line perpendicular to one with slope m is the negative reciprocal of m. Here, however, the slope is zero, and the negative reciprocal of that does not exist. This signifies a VERTICAL line with undefined slope.
Thus, all we have to do to locate this line is to look at the x component of the given point thru which the line is to pass: That comp is 2.
Thus, the equation of the new line perpendicular to the old is x = 2.</span>
