Nachelle is 1.45 meters tall. At 11 a.m., she measures the length of a tree's shadow to be 23.05 meters. She stands 18.9 meters

away from the tree, so that the tip of her shadow meets the tip of the tree's shadow. Find the height of the tree to the nearest hundredth of a meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

this creates 2 similar triangles.

that means all angles are the same. and all the side lengths of one triangle correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle by the same multiplication factor.

her shadow is 23.05 - 18.9 = 4.15 m long.

the factor between the shadow lengths is then

4.15 × f = 23.05

f = 23.05 / 4.15 = 5.554216867...

the same factor now applies to the relation of the heights :

1.45 × 5.554216867... = 8.053614458... m

rounded the tree is 8.05 m tall.

Problem 11

Answer: Angle C and angle F

Explanation: Angle C and the 80 degree angle are vertical angles. Vertical angles are always congruent. Angle F is equal to angle C because they are alternate interior angles.

============================================

Problem 12

Answer: 100 degrees

Explanation: Solve the equation E+F = 180, where F = 80 found earlier above. You should get E = 100.

============================================

Problem 13

Answer: 80 degrees

Explanation: This was mentioned earlier in problem 11.

============================================

Problem 14

Answers: complement = 50, supplement = 140

Explanation: Complementary angles always add to 90. Supplementary angles always add to 180. An example of supplementary angles are angles E and F forming a straight line angle.
