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.

João is in a candy store and wants to buy a chocolate bar that costs R$3.50. He hands a R$10.00 bill to the cashier. What is the change amount that João should receive? Select the correct alternative.

In a civil engineering project, an architect needs to divide a rectangular plot of land into two equal parts for the construction of two semi-detached houses. The coordinates of the vertices of the land on the Cartesian plane are A(0, 0), B(30, 0), C(30, 20), and D(0, 20). Using concepts of analytic geometry, determine the coordinates of the point that represents the midpoint of side CD of the land, which will be the dividing point between the two new properties. Then, verify if the obtained midpoint point is indeed on segment CD, ensuring the accuracy of the project. Explain the reasoning used to determine the coordinates and to verify the positioning of the midpoint on the land.
