chad casts a shadow that is 14.3 feet long. the straight-line distance from the top of chad’s head to the end of the shadow creates a 23° angle with the ground. how tall is chad, to the nearest tenth of a foot?

i don't even know man. edge inuity be messing with us. i had to ask a question too.

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
