Using similar triangles, it is found that the height of the taller pole is of 9.6m.
What are similar triangles?Similar triangles are triangles that have the same angles, and whose side lengths are proportional.
The hypotenuse of the smaller triangle is given as follows:
h² = 6² + 8² -> h = 10.
Hence the proportional relationship is:
[tex]\frac{10}{16} = \frac{6}{h}[/tex]
Applying cross multiplication:
10h = 96
h = 9.6m.

From his home Craig would have to walk due north to get to his friend Devon's house and due east to get to his friend Dereks house.it is 4 miles from Craigs house to derricks House and a straight line distance of 5 miles from devon house to derricks House how far is Craig's house from Devon's house
Answer:
3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because Derek would be your right angle of the corner of the right triangle. And since the distance is both of those houses from Derek’s house, you would have to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the difference of the hypotenuse and the leg

Diego has a maximum of $35 from his summer job earnings to buy shorts and socks for soccer. He needs 5 pairs of socks and a pair of shorts. Each pair of socks costs the same. The shorts he wants cost $19.95.
Write and solve an inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks. Let x represent the price of one pair of socks.
Answer:
The inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks, 'Y', is;
Y ≤ $3.07
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters for the maximum earnings and the number a=of socks for soccer Diego can buy are;
The maximum amount Diego has, A = $35
The cost of the shorts Diego wants, S = $19.95
The number of pairs of socks Diego needs, n = 5 pairs
Let the
Given that, 'x', represents the price of a pair of socks, we have, the inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks, 'Y', is given as follows;
Y ≤ (A - S)/n
Plugging in the known values of 'A', 'S', and 'n', we have;
Y ≤ (35 - 19.65)/5 = 3.07
∴ Y ≤ $3.07
5 out of 40 randomly selected students at Oxford Middle School stated that they would like to have a school uniform policy. Based on those results, about how many students out of the 992 enrolled would you expect to want a school uniform policy?
Answer:
124
Step-by-step explanation:
5 out of 40 = ⅛ of the students stated they would like to have a school uniform policy.
992 × ⅛ = 124

In a circle, an angle measuring pie over 2 radians intercepts an arc of length 1 pie. Find the
radius of the circle in simplest form.
Answer:
2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Angle ,[tex]\theta=\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]radian
Length of an arc=[tex]\pi[/tex]
We have to find the radius of circle in simples form.
We know that
[tex]\theta=\frac{l}{r}[/tex]
Where l=Length of arc
r=Radius of circle
Using the formula
[tex]\frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi}{r}[/tex]
[tex]r=\frac{2\times \pi}{\pi}[/tex]
[tex]r=2[/tex]units
Hence, the radius of the circle=2 units

Which proportion can be used to find the value of DG¯¯¯¯¯¯?
a 15/7=5/DG
b DG/15=5/7
c 5/7=15/DG
d 5/DG=15/6
Two triangles A B C and D F G. A B is 5 inches. B C is 6 inches. A C is 7 inches. D F is 15 inches. F G is 18 inches. Angle B is congruent to angle F.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Since every side of ΔABC is dilated by 3, or triple the size
We multiply every length of ΔABC by 3
But the length of DF and FG are already done for us but DG is not, which is essential to finding the answer
7 x 3 = 21
DG = 21
5/7 = 15/21
5 ÷ 7 = 0.71
15/21 = 0.71
5/7 = 15/21
Value of [tex]\boldsymbol{DG}[/tex] in a triangle [tex]DFG[/tex] is equal to [tex]\boldsymbol{21}[/tex] inches. To understand the calculations, check below.
Define similar triangles.Two triangles are said to be similar if their sides are proportional and their angles are equal.
Triangles [tex]ABC,DFG[/tex] are similar
[tex]\frac{AB}{DF}=\frac{BC}{FG}=\frac{AC}{DG}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{15}=\frac{7}{DG}[/tex]
[tex]DG=21[/tex] inches
So, value of [tex]DG[/tex] is equal to [tex]\boldsymbol{21}[/tex] inches

A line passes through the point (-2,9) and (0,-3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = - 6x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3)
m = [tex]\frac{-3-9}{0+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-12}{2}[/tex] = - 6
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3 ) ⇒ c = - 3
y = - 6x - 3 ← equation of line

Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form, with whole numbers in the numerator and denominator. 45 L to 56 L
Answer:
45/56
Step-by-step explanation:
We have,
Numerator = 45 L
Denominator = 56 L
We need to find the ratio as a fraction in simplest form. So,
[tex]\dfrac{N}{D}=\dfrac{45}{56}[/tex]
As there is no common factor between 45 and 56. It means the simplest fraction is 45/56.

The length of a rectangle is three meters more than its width the perimeter of the rectangle is 74 meters what are the dimensions of the rectangle
Answer:
17 meters x 20 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter = 2 widths + 2 lengths
74 = 2W + 2L
L = W + 3
substitute for L
74 = 2W + 2(W + 3)
74 = 4W + 6
68 = 4W
W = 17 meters
L = 20 meters
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Let the width = w
Then the Length = w + 3
Formula
P = 2L + 2W
P = 74
Solution
Substitute w + 3 for L
2(W + 3) + 2W = 74 Remove the brackets
2W + 6 + 2W = 74 Collect Like Terms
4w + 6 = 74 Subtract 6 from both sides
4w = 74 - 6
4w = 68 Divide by 4
w = 68/4
w = 17
L = w + 3
L = 17 + 3
L = 20
Check
P = 40 + 34
P =74

The slope is the rate of increase. We have to measure it like we do with stairs. The rise divided by the run
the rise is 2. See the picture. The run is 3(change in x) the x increases by 3 between 2 integer points while the y changes by 3(change in y —>3 minus 1)
Rise= 3
