the distance from the base of a flagpole to a point on the ground is 24 feet. the flagpole has a height of 18. what is x the distance from the top of the flagpole to the ground.

Answers

Answer 1

You can solve this by doing Pythagorean theorem. I think thats what its called... a^2+b^2=c^2. So 24 squared plus 18 squared is 900. The square root of 900 is 30. The legnth of the third side is 30.

Answer 2

The distance from the top of the flagpole to the ground is 30 feet.

What is Pythagorean theorem?

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, according to Pythagoras's Theorem. These triangle's three sides are known as the Perpendicular, Base, and Hypotenuse. Due to its position opposite the 90° angle, the hypotenuse in this case is the longest side.

Given the distance from the base of a flagpole to a point on the ground = 24 feet

height of flagpole = 18 feet

the distance from the top of the flagpole to the ground is x

by Pythagorean theorem, we can find the distance

h² = b² + p²

h = hypotenuse = x

b = base = 24 feet

h = height = 18 feet

x² = 24² + 18²

x² = 576 + 324

x = √900

x = 30 feet

Hence the value of x is 30 feet.

The diagram shows triangle PQR.
PSR is a straight line.
size of angle PQS : size of angle SQR = 3:1
S
Work out the size of angle PSQ

Answers

Answer:

Angle PSQ is 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle ΔPQR, we have;

m∠QPS = 65°

m∠PRQ = 43°

Line PSR is a straight line

m∠PQS : m∠SQR = 3:1

Therefore;

∠PQR = 180° - (∠QPS + ∠PRQ), by the angle sum theorem of a triangle

∴ ∠PQR = 180° - (65° + 43°) = 72°

∠PQR = 72°

∠PQR = m∠PQS + m∠SQR by angle addition postulate

m∠PQS : m∠SQR = 3:1

∴ m∠PQS = 3 × m∠SQR

∴ ∠PQR = m∠PQS + m∠SQR = 3 × m∠SQR + m∠SQR = 4 × m∠SQR

∠PQR = 4 × m∠SQR

∴ 4 × m∠SQR = ∠PQR = 72°

m∠SQR = 72°/4 = 18°

m∠PQS = 3 × m∠SQR = 3 × 18° = 54°

m∠PQS = 54°

∠PSQ = 180° - (∠QPS + ∠PQS) by the angle sum theorem

∴ ∠PSQ = 180° - (65° + 54°) = 61°

Angle ∠PSQ = 61°.

There is a bag filled with 4 blue, 3 red and 5 green marbles.
A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is replaced.
Another marble is taken at random.
What is the probability of exactly 1 red?

Answers

Answer:

You are selecting marbles with replacement. The marble selections (trials) are independent and the marble selection follows the binomial distribution.

The probability of selecting a red marble the first time is 1313.

(This is because 4 out of 12 marbles are red and412412 reduces to 1313.

The probability of selecting a red marble the second time is 1313.

The marble selections are independent and you can multiply the two probabilities to get the following:

probability of getting 2 reds = (13)2(13)2

=19=19.

So the probability of getting two reds is 1919.
