Your friend Tyler is preparing to climb a rock face and wants to figure out how far he will need
to climb to reach one of three different peaks. You remember a trick you can use to help him out.
You realize that if you place a small mirror on the ground and move it to where Tyler can see the
reflection of the peak in the mirror, then the angles from the mirror to Tyler and from the mirror
to the peak are congruent.
Use what you have learned about triangles, the mirror, Tyler, and the peak to find the height of
the peak
Defining Your Triangles
1. Which peak did you select? (1 point)
Tyler will climb peak
2. In the drawing below, label the distances given for the peak you chose. (3 points: 1 point for
each correct distance)
