30 meter building casts a shadow the distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 37 m find the length of the shadow

 22 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a picture of a right triangle and label the height as 30 meters and the hypotenuse as 37 meters.  Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the base (the length of the shadow).

a² + b² = c²

x² + 30² = 37²

x²          = 37² - 30²

x²          = 1369 - 900

x²          = 469

√x²       = √469

        x = 21.656

        x ≈ 22

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
