A 15.2 foot long ladder is leaning against a wall, and the foot of the ladder makes a 76.8 degree angle with the floor. Find the height of the point where the ladder touches the wall,
rounded to the nearest tenth.

answer: ratio of volume of cone (with 3 times the height and equal diameter) to volume of cylinder is 2 to 1. the value of π is not used.

step-by-step explanation:

radius is diameter/2 = 4.

area of circle is π r^2.

volume of cylinder is height × area of base = hπr^2 = 3(4^2) π = 48π cubic inches.

not knowing the formula for volume of cone, i calculate it using calculus (which is for calculating things).

volume of cone is integral 0 to h area(y) dy. area(y) is π r(y)^2. r(y) runs r to zero as y runs zero to h, r(0) = r, r(h) = 0.

r(y) = r - r/h y

area(y) = π (r - r/h y)^2 = π (r^2 - 2r^2y/h + r^2y^2/h^2) = π r^2(1-2y/h+y^2/h^2)

antiderivative area(y) = π r^2 (y-y^2/h+y^3/(3h^2))

integral 0 to h = π r^2(h-h^2/h+h^3/(3h^2) - (0)) = π r^2(h - h + h/3) = π r^2(h/3) = π/3 r^2 h

volume of this cone is π/3(4^2)18 cubic inches.

= 6 16 π = 96π cubic inches.

cone has twice the volume, 96/48.

cone height is 6 times the cylinder.

ratio of volume formula: π r^2 cancels.

cone over cylinder ratio is 6h/3 to h, 2 to 1.

i believe so, according to my "strange" way of figuring out weird math problems like this.

we know that

1) the inscribed angle measures half of the arc it comprises.

so

m∠dgf= > expression

2) the opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary angles

so

m∠dgf=

m∠dgf=°

substitute in the expression to find the value of arc ef

therefore

the answer is

the measure of the arc ef is

1. 28 over 9

2. i don't know this i'm sorry : (

3. 19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4

4. 7 and 1 over 3 divided by 1 over 6

5. 9.5

6. $124

7. 2 over 9

8.   (−$8) ⋅ 12

9. -67.2

10. $ 170.00

11. -27 feet

12. 5.7 with bar over 7

hope i !
