How do you solve similar triangles using indirect measurements?Solving Similar Triangles with Indirect Measurement & Triangles Given. Step 1: Identify the sides and/or angles of the given triangle. Step 2: Calculate the third angle from the equation, ∠A=180∘−(∠B+∠C) ∠ A = 180 ∘ − ( ∠ B + ∠ C ) , where ∠A,∠B,∠C are the three angles of △ABC.
What is an example of indirect measurement?Indirect measures include surveys, interviews, course evaluations, and reports on retention, graduation, and placement, etc.
How do you calculate indirect measurements?Two common ways to achieve indirect measurement involve (1) using a mirror on the ground and (2) using shadow lengths and find an object's height. Method 1 measures the person's height and the distances between the person, mirror, and object. Method 2 measures shadows and the person's height.
