A zip line runs from the top of a platform on the edge of a pond to the ground across the pond. A camp counselor places mirror on the edge of the pond across from the platform and stan until the top of the platform is visible in the mirror. 6 ft F4 ft+ 180 ft Not drawn to scale. (a) Are the two triangles formed similar? Explain your reasoning. Both triangles are right triangles. The angles made at the mirror on the ground are congruent. Therefore, the triangles are similar. (b) Find the length of the zip line. (Round your answer to the nearest foot.) 30 X ft
