Problem Solving s
A satellite is h kilometers above the surface of
Earth at point S. Given that Earth's radius is about
6378.1 kilometers, approximate the distance to the
horizon to the nearest tenth of a kilometer.
h
1. h = 16,000 km
2. h - 20,000 km
3. h = 25,000 km
4. h = 30,000 km

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+

hi how are you doing today? if you ever need just tell me

step-by-step explanation:

segment bisector

step-by-step explanation:

line segment bisector. definition: a line, ray or segment which cuts another line segment into two equal parts. try this drag one of the orange dots at a or b and note the the line ab always divides the line pq into two equal parts.

mark brainliest!

its the second choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the elements in the range will be 7 less than the elements in the domain.
