Use a proportion to solve the problem. round to the nearest tenth as needed. a tree casts a shadow 30 m long. at the same time, the shadow cast by a 56-cm tall statue is 88 cm long. find the height of the tree.

the answer is a reflection across the line m

step-by-step explanation:

on edge

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
