A man places a mirror on the ground and sees the reflection of the top of a flagpole as shown in the figure below. The two triangles in the figure are similar. Find the height h of the flagpole. Note that the two triangles are proportional to one another. ​a = 3, b = 7, c = 28

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B

These two triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides will remain constant. Then the value of h is 65.33 units.

What is the triangle?

Triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three angles. The sum of the angle of the triangle is 180 degrees.

A man places a mirror on the ground and sees the reflection on the top of a flagpole as shown in the figure below.

The two triangles in the figure are similar.

Note that the two triangles are proportional to one another. ​a = 3, b = 7, c = 28

If both triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides will remain constant.

Then we have

[tex]\rm \dfrac{h}{b} = \dfrac{c}{a}\\\\h \ = b \times \dfrac{c}{a}\\\\h\ = 7 \times \dfrac{28}{3}\\\\h \ = 65.33[/tex]
