Michele wanted to measure the height of her school's flagpole to place on the ground 35 ft from the flagpole then walks backwards until she was able to see the top of the pole in the mirror her eyes were 5 feet above the ground and she was 12 ft away from the mirror using similar triangles, find the height of the flagpole to the nearest of a foot

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school's flagpole to place on the ground 35 ft from the flagpole then walks backwards until she was able to see the top of the pole in the mirror her eyes were 5 feet above the ground and she was 12 ft away from the mirror using similar triangles, find the height of the flagpole to the nearest of a foot

Using similar triangles

= Let the height of the flagpole be represented as h.

h/35 =5/12

We cross Multiply

35 x 5 = 12h

12h = 175

h = 175/12

h = 14.583333333 feet

Approximately to the nearest foot is

h = 15 feet
