7! ~ a 6 foot tall man casts a shadow that is 4.5 feet long. a telephone pole casts a shadow that is 15.6 feet long. two similar triangles are created. how tall is the telephone pole?

The answer is:

The telephone pole is 20.8 foot tall.

Since it's not mentioned, we can assume that both, man and the telephone pole are close, so, if two similar triangles are created, we know that both shadows are proportional and we can find the telephone pole height creating a proportionality relationship.

We can find the telephone pole height using the following equation,

Were,

Man height is 6 foot

Man shadow  is 4.5 feet long

Telephone pole shadow is 15.6 feet long.

So, substituting we have:

So, the telephone pole is 20.8 foot tall.

Have a nice day!

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 -12x + 36 + y^2 = 36

x^2 + y^2 = 12x

r^2 = 12rcos(theta)

r = 12 cos(theta)
