The distance from the base of the tree to the tallest would be 14.21 cm

<h3>We have the following data points in this question</h3>

X1 = 8 feet

y1 = 16 feet

x2 = 11 feet

y2 = 9 feet

To proceed with the solution we have to

We have to solve for the shorter tree

\sqrt{(y2 -y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2} \\\\= \sqrt{9-0^2 + 11-0^2}

<em>= </em>9² + 11²

= √81 +121

= 14.21

<h3>For the taller tree we would have</h3>

√8² + 16²

= √64 +256

= 17.89
