One particular 13-foot tall cone of dry sand has a base diameter of 38.6 feet. To the nearest tenth of a degree, what is the angle of repose of this type of dry sand?
A different conical pile of the same type of sand as before (which will have the same angle of repose) is 10 feet tall. What is the diameter of the cone’s base?

Respuesta :

This is simple proportions, because of their similarity:

[tex] \frac{13}{38.6} = \frac{10}{x} [/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{386}{13} [/tex]

The answer is

x =  386/13



Hope this helped.
