I would solve this using tangents. Let h be height of flagpole.
Set up 2 right triangles, each with a base of 40.
The larger triangle has height of "h+70"
Smaller triangle has height of 70.
Now write the tangent ratios:
Note: A-B = 9
To solve for h we need to use the "Difference Angle" formula for Tangent
Plug in what we know:
If you’re cutting it into half inch pieces, you’ll take the length of the roll and multiply it by 2, so 13•2=26
The table shows a linear function. x -5,-4,-3,-2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3. on top row f(x) -11, -3, 5, 13, 21, 29, 37, 45, 53. on bottom r

Wouldn’t the inputs be 4 and 5? I could wrong though
This problem exercises the concept of "similar triangles."
With similar triangles, we can compare the sides using ratios.
The equation we can use to find side A is stated below.
Side 1A / Side 1B = Side 2A / Side 2B
The number refers to the triangle, and the letter refers to the side of each triangle. Side A in both triangles must be the base of the triangle, and side B in both triangles can be either of the other sides. The only restriction is that once we pick a side B on triangle 1, we must pick that same side on triangle 2.
A / 7 = 3 / 2
Then we can solve for the length of side A.
A = 7*3/2 = 21/2 = (E) None of These
