Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-x=15+1
4x÷4=16÷4
x=4
<span>Let the height of the tree be h foot.
Trigonometric ratio for tangent = Opposite side / adjacent side----(1)
Since the tree is standing vertically on a level ground, the three points, [ Top of the tree, the point where the tree touches the ground and the point where the shadow ends] form a right angled triangle.
Applying (1) for the above three points, tan(24.7)=(height of the tree)/(length of shadow)
Hence, height of the tree = tan(24.7)*(length of the shadow)
= (0.46)*140
= 65 foot (Rounding off to the nearest foot)</span>
Answer:
x = 15
LN and MO both equal 43
Step-by-step explanation:
LN and MO are diagonals in rectangle
Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent Hence, 4x - 17 = 2x + 13
Now we solve for x
4x - 17 = 2x + 13
Add 17 to both sides
4x = 2x + 30
Subtract 2x from both sides
2x = 30
Divide both sides by 2
x = 15
Now we want to find the values of LN and MO
To do so we substitute 15 for x in it's given expression ( note: because LN = MO we only need to do this process once )
LN = 4x - 17
Substitute 15 for x
4(15) - 17
Multiply
60 - 17
Subtract
LN and MO = 43
This expression can't be simplified any further be as there is no common factor for the numerator and the denominator.
