Look at the picture of a scaffold used to support construction workers. The height of the scaffold can be changed by adjusting t

wo slanting rods, one of which, labeled PR, is shown: A support structure is shown in which a right triangle PQR is formed with the right angle at Q. The length of PQ is shown as 14 feet, and the length of QR is shown as 6 feet.. Part A: What is the approximate length of rod PR? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Explain how you found your answer, stating the theorem you used. Show all your work. (5 points) Part B: The length of rod PR is adjusted to 16 feet. If width PQ remains the same, what is the approximate new height QR of the scaffold? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Show all your work. (5 points)

The area of a square for on a scale drawing of 100 square centimeters and the scale drawing to 1 cm: 2 feet what is the area of
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1.\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}; 2. \boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the area of the floor

If the area A₁ of a square floor on the scale drawing is 100 cm², the length of a side is 10 cm.

The side length l of the actual floor is  

l = 10 cm × (2 ft/1 cm) = 20 ft

The area A₂ of the floor is  

A = l² = (20 ft)² = \boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}\\

Step 2. Calculate the area ratios

We must express both areas in the same units.  

Let's express the area of the room in square centimetres.

l = 20 ft ×  (12 in/1 ft) = 240 in

l = 240 in × (2.54 cm/1 in) = 609.6 cm

A₂ = l² = (609.6 cm)² = 371 612 cm²

The area A₁ on the scale drawing is 100 cm².

The ratio of the areas is

\frac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = \frac{100}{371612} = \frac{1 }{3716}\\

The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is \boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}

For (A.) Get a common denominator, 40/12 - 9/12 = 31/12 or (2 and 7/12)
For (B.) Get a common denominator, 24/15 - 10/15 = 14/15 (Simplified)
For (C.) Get a common denominator, 51/30 - 25/30 = 26/30 or (13/15)
For (D.) Get a common denominator, 14/6 - 9/6 = 5/6 (Simplified)

Hope this helps!

you can use a calculator if you want. No links please help this is very important i will give you brain thing if its correct
Leto [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. move the decimal to make the numbers whole

0.25 - move to the right 2 times - 25

0.044 - move to the right 3 times - 44

2. Multiply 25 * 44 = 1,100

3. Add decimal

you moved the decimal 6 times in total for both numbers...so move the decimal 6 times starting from right.

MrRa [10]
Answer: approximately 29 feet

Explanation: You need to find a tree so that the angle of elevation from the end of the shadow to top of the tree is 40 degrees.

The length of the shadow is an adjacent side and is 35.
The height of the tree is the opposite side.  You could use X.

Tan ratio = opposite/adjacent

tan(40) =  x/35
x = 35*tan(40) =29.37
