If the sun is 68° above the horizon, find the length of the shadow cast by a building 88 ft tall. round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Length of shadow = 35.56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BAC = 68°

Height of building = BC = 88 ft

Length of shadow = AC = ?

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)

the answer i believe is 27 units.
