(multiple choice) in the game of miniature golf, the ball bounces off the wall at the same angle it hit the wall. (this is the angle formed by the path of the ball and the line perpendicular to the wall at the point of contact.) in the diagram, the ball hits the wall at a 40 degree angle. what are the values of x and y?

a) x=50; y=40
b) x=40; y=50
c) x=50; y=50
d) x=40; y=40

 The correct option is

(C) x=50; y=50.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that in the game of miniature golf, the ball bounces off the wall at the same angle it hit the wall as shown in the figure.

In the diagram, the ball hits the wall at a 40 degree angle.

We are to find the values of x and y.

From the figure, we note that

Since the ball bounces off the wall at the same angle it hit the wall, so we must have

Thus, the required values of a and y are 50 and 50.

Option (C) is CORRECT.

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
