Answer: Question #1 The height of the tree is about 18 feet.
To solve this problem, you have to write a proportion using the similar triangles that are drawn. The height of the tree matches the height of the person and the shadows match.
Therefore, we can write and solve the following equation:
x/15 = 5.5/4.5
82.5 = 4.5x
x = 18.33
Answer:
c = 13
m∡A = 60°
m∡B = 30°
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a 5-12-13 triangle. However, to make sure, I will put the steps.
Allow for each sides to be denoted as a-b-c, in which c is the hypotenuse (longest side). Set the equation:
a² + b² = c²
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
5² + 12² = c²
Simplify. First, solve the exponents, and then add:
(5²) = 5 * 5 = 25
(12²) = 12 * 12 = 144
25 + 144 = c²
c² = 169
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, c, by rooting both sides:
√c² = √169
c = √169 = √(13 * 13) = 13
c = 13
13 is your answer for c.
Note the measurements of the angles. We know that this is a 30-60-90 triangle, and so it will be easy to figure it out. Note that the corresponding angles will depend on that of the opposite side's measurement lengths. The hypotenuse will always be on the opposite side of the largest angle (as given), as c, the longest side, is opposite of ∡C, which is the largest angle (90°). Based on this information, it means that ∡A would be 60° (as it is opposite of the middle number, 12), and ∡B would be 30° (opposite of the smallest number, 5).
Answer:
Sphere Volume = 4/3 * PI * radius^3
Sphere Volume = 4/3 * PI * 8^3
Sphere Volume = 4/3 * PI * 512
Sphere Volume = 2,144.7 cubic inches

Answer:
-19
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2 = -55
-2 -2
3x = -55-2
3x = -55+-2
3x = -57
/3 /3
x=-19
5 × 2 + 1
= 11/5
