Dr black is standing 13 feet from a streetlamp. The lamp is making his shadow 9 feet long. He estimates that the angle of elevation from the tip of his shadow to the top of the streetlamp is 50° to the nearest foot the streetlamp is about 26 feet tall.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
X = 25, Angles are 65 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-10 = x+40
2x=50
x=25
We are given a right triangle and we are asked to determine the hypotenuse given the measure of its sides. To do that we will use the Pythagorean theorem:

Now, we solve the square:

Now, we add the values:

Now, we take the square root to both sides:
![h=\sqrt[]{500km^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B500km%5E2%7D)
Solving the operations:

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 22.361 kilometers.
