The first thing we are going to assume for this case is that the tree and the post are located in the same place.
From that place, both cast a shadow in the same direction.
We then have two similar triangles.
Therefore, we have the following relationship:

From here, we clear the value of x.
We have then:

Answer:
the tree is 30 feet tall
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 6x6=36
2. 8+36=44
3. 44/11=4
4. 7x2=14
5. 4+14=18
Answer:
B 1 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
- 9 2/7 - ( -10 3/7)
We know subtracting a negative is like adding
- 9 2/7 +10 3/7
10 3/7 - 9 2/7
Putting this vertical
10 3/7
-9 2/7

Answer:
3. 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula applies in 3 dimensions as well as 2.
d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)² +(z2 -z1)²)
d = √((-2)² +6² +3²) = √(4 +36 +9) = √49
d = 7
The distance between the two points is 7 units.
