Question

find the value of H in feet​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is:     h = 25. 23 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

h = ?

RT = 20 ft

AB = 4ft 2 in = 4.17 ft

AC = 3ft 4 in = 3.33 ft

Thales' theorem

                             $\frac{h}{RT} = \frac{AB}{AC}$

                              $\frac{h}{20} = \frac{4 ft 2 in }{3 ft 4 in}$

                              h = 20(4 ft 2 in)/ 3 ft 4 in

                              h = 80 ft / 3 ft 2 in

                              h = 80 ft / 3.17 ft

                              h = 25. 23 ft
