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
<em>= </em>9² + 11²
= √81 +121
= 14.21
<h3>For the taller tree we would have</h3>√8² + 16²
= √64 +256
= 17.89

The difference between the two mass is 151950g
Data;
- Mass a = 29.48kg
- Mass b = 181,430g
To calculate the difference between the mass, we must do so in the same unit. i.e both mass a and mass b must be in the same unit.
<h3>Conversion of Mass from Kg to g</h3>Let's convert mass a from kg to g
Using this, we can find how many grammes are in 29.48kg
Now we can find the difference between mass b and mass a
The difference between the two mass is 151950g
