Make each known side into a ratio like so...
75/6
(Because 75 is the shadow casted by the building, and 6 is the shadow casted by sarah)
and 50/x
(50 is how tall the building is and sarah's height is what needs to be found)
Therefore,
75 50
---- -----
6 x
Do cross products;
50 x 6 = 75 x X
300 = 75x
Divide by 75
x = 4ft
12,176/24 = 1522/3 or 507 1/3
Answer:
Point D
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps :)
HETY is a parallelogram.
HT and EY are diagonals. We know that diagonals divides the parallelogram into two equal parts.
So ar(HET) = ar(HTY)
And, ar(HEY) = ar(EYT) now, in AHET, diagonal EY bisects the line segment HT and also the AHET,
∴ar(AHOE) = ar(AEOT)
Similarly in AETY
ar(ΔΕΟΤ) = ar(ΔΤΟΥ)
And in AHTY,
ar(ATOY) = ar(AHOY)
That means diagonals in parallelogram divides it into four equal parts.
Hence Proofed.
