At a particular time of a day, a-7-m high flagstaff casts a shadow which is 8.2m long. What is the height the building which cast a shadow 20.5m in length that the same moment

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

17.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the formula

Height /Shadow

Height of flag staff = 7m

Shadow of flag staff = 8.2 m

Height of the building = x

Shadow of the building = 20.5

= 7/8.2 = x/20.5

Cross Multiply

8.2x = 7 × 20.5

x = 7 × 20.5/8.2

x = 143.5 / 8.2

x = 17.5m

The height of the building is 17.5 m

Help please!!!

Answers

Answer:

The additional information necessary is option;

D. [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] ⊥  [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, we have;

Given that ML ≅ MP,

The Hypotenuse Leg HL theorem of congruency is used to prove that a given number of right triangles based on the lengths of their hypotenuse and one of the legs. It states that two or more right triangles are congruent if they have equal lengths of both their corresponding hypotenuse side and one leg

To prove that ΔLMN and ΔPMN are congruent by HL, we will also be required to prove that ΔLMN and ΔPMN are right triangles

For ΔLMN and ΔPMN to be right triangles, the angles, ∠LNM and ∠PNM should be right angles = 90°

With ∠LNM = ∠PNM = 90°, then, line [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] is perpendicular to line [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex] or  [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] ⊥  [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex]

Therefore, the additional information necessary to prove that ΔLMN ≅ ΔPMN by HL is [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] ⊥  [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex].

visitors spend 1/3 of their time waiting in line for rides. Of the santos family spends 53/4 hours at the park how long do they wait in line

Answers

Answer: 1 11/12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since visitors spend 1/3 of their time waiting in line for rides and the Santos family spends 5¾hours at the park.

The tune spent waiting in line will be calculated by multiplying ⅓ by 5¾. This will be:

= ⅓ × 5¾

= ⅓ × 23/4

= 23/12

= 1 11/12 hours

Therefore, they'll wait in the park for 1 11/12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

340/45 = 7 5/9

Answer:

7.6 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Okie, so this is a standard unit rate problem, so what you're going to do is divide the number of whatever, in this case, pages, by the time, so:

340 ÷ 45 = 7.6 (rounded)

So you read 7.5 pages per minute

You randomly choose one of the marbles. Without replacing the first marble, you choose a second marble. There are 4 marbles. One yellow, one red, one green, and one blue. Name two ways you can find the total number of possible outcomes.

Answers

The way I see it, there are 16 possible outcomes. I figured this out by there being 4 marbles and 4 different colors. I multiply 4 times 4 and get 16. You could get red and blue, blue and green, etc. It all depends on which color you grab first and which one you grab second. Yes getting green and yellow is technically the same as getting yellow and green but at one point you grabbed green first and the other you grabbed yellow first.

diameter = 36 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 4π r^3/3

24416.64 = (4(3.14) r^3)/3

r^3 = 5832

r = cube root of 5832 = 18

An urban planner wants to create a city block. The city block will be 50 feet by 75 feet. What will the dimensions of his scale drawing be if the drawing has a scale factor of 1 cm = 12.5 ft?

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions of his scale drawing = 4 cm by 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

An urban planner wants to create a city block. The city block will be 50 feet by 75 feet. What will the dimensions of his scale drawing be if the drawing has a scale factor of 1 cm = 12.5 ft?

From the above question

12.5 ft = 1 cm

Hence

For 50 feet

12.5 feet = 1 cm

50 feet = x

Cross Multiply

12.5 × x = 50

x = 50/12.5

x = 4 cm

For 75 feet

12.5 feet = 1 cm

75 feet = x

Cross Multiply

12.5 × x = 75

x = 75/12.5

x = 6 cm

The dimensions of his scale drawing = 4 cm by 6 cm

A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches. If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders? Answer in terms of Pi.

Answers

Answer:

336π in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylinder 1

r₁= 4 inh = 5 in

Cylinder 2

r₂ = 3*4 = 12 inh = 5 in

Surface area of cylinders:

S = 2πr(r + h)S₁ = 2π*4*(4 + 5) = 72π in²S₂ = 2π*12*(12 + 5) = 408π in²

The difference is:

S₂ - S₁ = 408π - 72π = 336π in²
Question:-

A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches. If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders ? Answer in terms of Pi.

Answer:-

Given:-

A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches.

To Find:-

If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders ?

Solution:-

Let in case of 1st cylinder,

[tex] \bullet [/tex] Radius [tex] (r_1) [/tex] is 4 inches

[tex] \bullet [/tex] Height is 5 inches

And in case of 2nd cylinder,

[tex] \bullet [/tex] Radius [tex] (r_2) [/tex] is 3 × 4 = 12 inches [as in the question it is given that the radius of the cylinder is tripled]

[tex] \bullet [/tex] Height is 5 inches

Now,

Surface area [tex] (s_1) [/tex] of 1st cylinder

is 2πr(r + h) = 2π × 4(4 + 5)

= 8π(9)

= 72π sq inches

Surface area [tex] (s_2) [/tex] of 2nd cylinder

is 2πr(r + h) = 2π × 12(12 + 5)

= 24π(17)

= 408π sq inches

[tex] \therefore [/tex] The difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders is = [tex] (s_2 \: - \: s_1) [/tex] = (408π - 72π) = 336π sq inches

The difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders is 336π sq inches. [Answer]
