Answer:
a) Angle X = 108°
<h3>C). Vertically opposite angles</h3>
as AD is parallel to EH both the angles are equal
8 - 2x + 6 = 24
(8 + 6) - 2x = 24
14 - 2x = 24 <em>subtract 14 from both sides</em>
-2x = 10 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
<h3>
x = -5</h3>
The height of the tree is 249.5 feet
<h3>How to determine the height of the tree?</h3>
The given parameters are:
- Elevation angle = 80 degrees
- Shadow length (L) = 44 feet
Let the height of the tree be x.
So, we have:
tan(80) = x/44
Multiply both sides by 44
x = 44 * tan(80)
Evaluate
x = 249.5
Hence, the height of the tree is 249.5 feet
