The height of the ramp above the ground is 1.55 meters.

The difference between the height of the tree is 33.20 meters

<h3>How to find sides of a right triangle?</h3>

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

Therefore, the height the ramp above the ground can be calculated as follows:

Using Pythagoras theorem,

sin 15  = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 15 = x / 6

cross multiply

x = 6 sin 15

x = 6 × 0.2588190451

x = 1.55291427062

x = 1.55

Therefore, the height of the ramp above the ground is 1.55 meters

tan 36  = opposite / adjacent

tan 36 = x / 60

x = 60 tan 36

x = 43.5925516803

x = 43.60 meters

tan 52 = y / 60

60 tan 52 = y

y = 76.7964979316

y = 76.79 meters

The difference between the height of the tree = 76.79 - 43.60 = 33.20 meters

What is the value of the fourth term in a geometric sequence for which a1=15 and r=1/3
kogti [31]

Formula: an = a1(r)^n-1

n = term number

a1 = first term

r = rate

Plug our values in:

n = 4

a1 = 15

r = 1/3

a4 = 15(1/3)^4-1

a4 = 15(1/3)^3

a4 = 15(1/27)

a4 = 0.5555555556

a4 = 0.6 to the nearest tenth
