Students have asked these similar questions
Part 1: A tower is 120 meters tall. A cable is attached from the top of the tower to a point on the ground that is 50 meters from the base of the tower. How long is the cable? (Drawing a picture might help.) Be sure to explain your work and show details.
Part 2: Suppose the cable described in part 1 is removed and a new cable is attached from the top of the tower to a point on the ground closer to the base of the tower. You are told the cable is 110 meters long. Is there something wrong with this? Explain what you are thinking about the proposed length of the cable for part 2. (This part of the problem does not necessarily require computation.)

- A copper casting is in the shape of a prism with an equilateral triangle base. The length of each base side is 17.80 centimeters, and the casting height is 16.23 centimeters. Copper weighs 8.8 grams per cubic centimeter. Determine the weight of the casting in kilograms. One kilogram equals 1000 grams. Round the answer to 2 decimal places.arrow_forwardA single-threaded (or single-start) square-thread screw is shown in Figure 5-6. The lead of a screw is the distance that the screw advances in one turn (revolution). The lead is equal to the pitch in a single-threaded screw. Given the number of turns and the amount of screw advance, determine the leads.arrow_forwardA landscaper wants to put a square reflecting pool next to a triangular deck, as shown below. The triangular deck is a right triangle, with legs of length 9 feet and 11 feet, and the pool will be adjacent to the hypotenuse. (a) Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of a side of the pool. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. (b) Find the exact area of the pool.arrow_forward
- The diagram shown in Figure 1 was used by the Hindu mathematician Bhaskara to prove the theorem in the 12th century. His proof consisted only of the diagram and the word Behold! Use this figure to derive the Pythagorean Theorem. The right triangle with sides a, b, and c has been repeated three times. The area of the large square is equal to the sum of the areas of the four triangles and the area of the small square in the center. The key to this derivation is in finding the length of a side of the small square. Once you have the equation, simplify the right side to obtain the theorem. Figure 1arrow_forwardUse the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the leg in the figure.arrow_forwardABC is similar to XYZ The lengths of two sides of each triangle are given in the figure.

- Ladder II. One end of a 13-foot-long ladder is resting on the top of a vertical wall. The distance from the foot of the ladder to the base of the wall is 7 feet less than the height of the wall. How high is the wall? Suggestion: Recall the Pythagorean theorem, which says for legs a and b and hypotenuse c of a right triangle that a² + b² = c². Apply this theorem to Figure 3.57, where æ is measured in feet. %3D 13 x-7 Figure 3.57 Crauder, et al., Quantitative Literacy, 3e, O 2019 W. H.
