Answer:

  10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of AC is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (-4 -1)/(3 -(-1)) = -5/4

Then the slope of CB is the opposite reciprocal, 4/5. The equation of line CB in point-slope form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -(-4) = 4/5(x -3) . . . . line CB

When y = 1 (to match the y-value of A), then ...

  1 +4 = 4/5(x -3)

  5(5/4) = (x -3) . . . . . multiply by 5/4

  6.25 +3 = x = 9.25 . . . . add 3

Point B is (9.25, 1).

The length of the hypotenuse is ...

  9.25 -(-1) = 10.25

Answer:

B) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't think to hard about the answer, all the numbers and text can be distracting.

Look at only the length of both Rachel 12 and Amos 16

Now use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown side in this right triangle.

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\12^{2} +16^{2} =c^{2}

f a 42.9 ft. flagpole casts a 253.1 ft. long shadow then how long is the shadow that a 6.2ft. tall woman casts
gtnhenbr [62]
Here, Ratio of shadow to object = 253.1 / 42.9 
So, it would remain constant for all objects.
Let, the show of women = x
Then, x / 6.2 = 253.1 / 42.9
x = 253.1 * 6.2 / 42.9
x = 36.58 Ft

In short, Your Answer would be 36.58 Feet

Hope this helps!
