ANSWER

Find out the how long of a shadow will a 5 foot tall woman have.

To proof

As given in the question

12 ft tall buildings casts an 8 ft long shadow

woman is 5 foot tall

let us assume that the length of the shadow be x.

At the same time the ratios of the actual length and its shadow length will remain constant for every object.

than the proportion equation becomes

woman is 5 foot tall

put the value

x = 3.33...

the shadow of  the woman be 3.33...feet long.

Hence proved

answer: 75°

step-by-step explanation:

∠esk is the supplement of ∠edk, so is 100°. ∠esd = 1/2·arc ed, so is 25°.

since ∠esk = ∠esd + ∠dsk

you have 100° = 25° + ∠dsk . .

fill in known values 75° = ∠dsk . . . . .

subtract 25°
