A flagpole casts a shadow 16 feet long.
Shanika is standing near the pole. Her
shadow is 4 feet long. Shanika's height is 5
feet. How tall is the flagpole?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Shanika is standing near the pole, we can safely assume that the triangle formed by Shanika and her shadow is a smaller version of the triangle formed by the pole and its shadow.

By similar triangles:

[tex] \frac{x \: of \: pole}{y \: of \: pole} = \frac{x \: of \: shanika}{y \: of \: shanika} \\ \frac{16}{ height \: of \: pole} = \frac{4}{5} \\ 16(5) = 4 \times height \: of \: pole \\ height \: of \: pole = \frac{80}{4} \\ = 20[/tex]

The height of the pole is 20ft.

The angles of quadrilateral are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 9 : 13. Find all the angles of the quadrilateral.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio be x

now,

3x+5x+9x+13x=360°(sum of angle of quadrilateral is 360°)

30x=360°

x=360/30

x=12°

then,

3x=3×12=36°

5x=5×12=60°

9x=9×12=108°

13x=13×12=156°

so,the angles of quadrilateral are 36°,60°,108°& 156°

hope it helps.

i think it’s 1/2, you have to count the rise over run from a point to the next, so it would go one up and then two over

Answer:

The answer is B - 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rise over run tells you the slope. You take two points (in this it's (0,-3) and (6,0)) and you see how many units it takes to be on the same y line as the other point. Then you do the same for the x line. You divide the rise (y line) by the run (x line) and that's your slope.

plss help​

Answers

Answer:

1) 3024 ways

2) 40320 ways

3) 5040 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

1) there are 3 boys and 6 girls. Thus, total number = 9 people.

There are four rows of chairs.

Thus, number of ways of being sitted is;

9P4 = 9!/(9 - 4)! = 3024 ways

2) number of ways = 8! = 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 40320 ways

3) since circular arrangement, then number of ways is; (n - 1)!

Thus,answer is; (8 - 1)! = 5040 ways

What is the relationship between the angle of depression of a person looking down from the top of a hill at their friend standing on the ground and the angle of elevation of the person on the ground looking up at their friend who is standing on top of the hill?


a. the angle of elevation will be greater than the angle of depression because the person has to look up from the ground to see their friend at the top of the hill

b. The angle of depression and angle of elevation will add to 180°

c. The angle of depression and angle of elevation will be the same

d.The angle of depression would be greater than the angle of elevation because the hill is higher than the ground​

Answers

Answer:

C) angle of depression and angle of elevation will be the same.

this is because the horizontal for angle of elevation and angle of depression are parallel

therefore, the two angles are same (alternate angles)

hope it helps.

pls mark brainliest !!!

The correct answer is (c) The angle of depression and angle of elevation will be the same.

What is an angle of depression?

When a person is standing on top of a hill and looking down at their friend standing on the ground, the angle formed between the line of sight and a horizontal line is called the angle of depression.

Similarly, when a person on the ground is looking up at their friend who is standing on top of the hill, the angle formed between the line of sight and a horizontal line is called the angle of elevation.

Since the two angles are formed by the same two points and are measured with respect to the same horizontal line, they will be congruent or the same. Therefore, option (c) is correct.

Answers

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,

then, solving our equation

t = 1200 / ( 6000 × 0.04 ) = 5

t = 5 years

The time required to

Step-by-step explanation:

204 dived by 3.5

i did 204 dived by 60 then

420 dived by 60

The time taken by the family to reach is T = 7 hours

What is Speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude

Speed = Distance / Time

Given data ,

Let the speed be represented as S

Now , the value of S is

S = D / T

speed = distance / time = 204 miles / 3.4 hours = 60 miles per hour

where , the distance D = 420 miles

And , T = 420 / 60

T = 7 hours

Hence , the time taken for 420 miles is 7 hours
