3 RIGHT TRIANGLES
1 big right triangle is divided into 2 smaller ones. Medium
and small.
<span> a.How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot? </span>
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = x
Small triangle: long leg = x ; short leg = 18m
32/x = x/18
32*18 = x*x
576 = x²
√576 = √x²
24 = x
Parking lot to the beach is 24 meters.
<span>b. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand?</span>
Use Pythagorean theorem:
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = 24 m ;
hypotenuse = ?
32²+ 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 m = c
Parking lot to refreshment stand is 40 meters.
Rationalizing the denominator, simply means "getting rid of that pesky root at the bottom", and we do so by simply multiplying it by something to take it out, of course, we multiply the bottom, we have to also multiply the top,
Answer:
Lauren

The length of ladder is 30 ft.
<h3>How can the feet that made up the side of the building is the top of the ladder be known ?</h3>
The formula below can be used in solving the problem
Tan (∅)= 
∅=70°
opposite = BC
Adjacent = 12 ft
70°= opposite/ 12
opposite= 32.96 ft
Therefore, The length of ladder is 30 ft.
NOTE; Since the actual diagram can not be found i solved another on on the same topic
