4 is the only factor common among all terms
Answer:
£495 million
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out the total cost of the land, we need to first calculate the area of the land.
Step 1: Find area of right angled triangle ADC
AD = 5 km,
DC = 12 km
Area of the right triangle = ½*a*b
a = 5km
b = 12km
Area = ½*5*12
= 5*6
Area of ADC = 30 km²
Step 2: Find the area of triangle ABC
First, let's find the length of AC using Pythagorean theorem
AC² = AD² + DC²
AC² = 5² + 12² = 25 + 144
AC = √169
AC = 13km
Area of ∆ABC = ½*AB*AC*sin(30°)
= ½*6*13*0.5
= 3*13*0.5
Area of ∆ABC = 19.5 km²
Total area of the land = area of ∆ADC + ∆ABC = 30 + 19.5 = 49.5 km²
Step 3: calculate how much the land costs
If the land costs £10 million per km²,
Cost of 49.5 km² = 49.5 × 10 = £495 million
Since the triangle formed is similar, then the ratio of the triangle height(horizontal distance) and the base of the triangle(the person and image height) will be same. The calculation would be:
a/b= c/d
16in / (4ft + 8in)= c/ (5ft + 3in)
16in/(48in + 8in)= c/ (60in + 3 in)
16in/64in= c/63in
c=1/4 * 63 in= 15.75 in= 16inch
