Answer: D. XVII
Answer:
The tree is 20.6 ft tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please check the attached graph.
From the diagram, it is clear that John is 5 ft tall is standing 20 feet away from a tree, making an angle of elevation to be 38⁰.
The diagram makes a right-angled triangle.
- Given the angle = Ф = 38⁰
- Hypotenuse = Tree length = c ?
Pythagorean Theorem:
For a right-angled triangle, with sides 'a' and 'b', the hypotenuse 'c' is defined as:

substituting a=5, b=20


ft
Thus, the tree is 20.6 ft tall.
Answer:
The measure of the angle JKG is:
m∠JKG = 56°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
m∠JKG = 76-2x
m∠FHK = 6x-4
J is a midpoint of the segment FG and K is a midpoint of the segment GH.
<u>To determine</u>
m∠JKG = ?
Given that J is a midpoint of the segment FG and K is a midpoint of the segment GH. Thus, making two similar triangles, ΔJGK and ΔFGH
We know that two triangles are similar if the only difference is size. So, the angles remain the same.
so m∠JKG and m∠FHK are equal.
i.e.
m∠JKG = m∠FHK
substitute m∠JKG = 76-2x and m∠FHK = 6x-4
76-2x = 6x-4
6x+2x = 76 + 4
8x = 80
divide both sides by 8
8x/8 = 80/8
x = 10
Therefore, the value of x = 10
As
m∠JKG = 76-2x
substitute x = 10
m∠JKG = 76 - 2(10)
= 76 - 20
= 56°
Therefore, measure of the angle JKG is:
m∠JKG = 56°
