Triangles: Similarity

Medium

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Medium of Mathematics

Gabriela and her friends decided to create a ramp for skateboarding in the park. They decided that the ramp would have a height of 1.5 meters, and the base of the ramp should be long enough so that the slope would not be too steep. If the ramp and the ground form a 30° angle and the ramp must be built under a right triangle, what is the length of the base of the ramp? Use the concepts of triangle similarity and trigonometric relationships to determine the length of the base.
a.
2.598 meters
b.
1.732 meters
c.
5.196 meters
d.
3.464 meters
e.
4.5 meters

Consider a Cartesian coordinate system where a point P has coordinates (a, b) and a point Q has coordinates (c, d). The absolute value of a number is defined as its distance from the origin of this system. If point P is in the second quadrant and point Q is in the fourth quadrant, with a, b, c, and d being integers, and it is known that the absolute difference between the y coordinates of P and Q is 15, determine the value of a - c, knowing that a < 0 and c > 0.

During the cleaning of the cooling system of a factory, a technician must adjust a light reflector fixed on the ceiling of the room. The reflector has the shape of a right circular cone with the vertex pointing upwards and an opening angle of 75º. The technician wants to calculate the height and the radius of the base of the cone to determine the ideal dimensions of the mirrors that will be installed on the inner surface of the cone, so that the reflected light follows a beam parallel to the floor. Consider that the angle of incidence of light on the inner surface of the cone should be 15º with the normal to the surface at the point of incidence to ensure total reflection of light. Based on this configuration, determine the height and the radius of the base of the cone, and additionally, identify the value of the sine and cosine of 22.5º, an angle that arises in the resolution of the problem.

In Ana's lunchbox, she has 8 green grapes and 6 purple grapes. In João's lunchbox, he has 4 grapes of each color. If they combine all the grapes and divide them equally between them, who will have more grapes, Ana or João? Write two different addition equations that result in the same total number of grapes to help Ana and João divide the grapes fairly.
