Steve is buying a farm and needs to determine the height of a silo on the farm . Steve, who is 6 feet tall, notices that when his shadow is 11 ft long, the shadow of the silo is 132 ft long . How tall is the silo ? Note that the diagram is not to scale.

other answer is correct. i had used the radius of the radius somehow. a website:

ca = ec

cpctc makes it so that corresponding parts of the triangle you proved to be equal are equal, the other options aren't part of the part of the triangles you proved to be equal.

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
