Answer:

height = 9.28m

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angle in a triangle = 180°

To find the third angle, we have

180° = 71° + 62° + α

180° = 133° + α

α = 180° - 133°

α = 47°

To find the height use sine rule

h/sin47° = 12/sin 71°

h(sin71°) = 12sin47°

h = 12sin47° / sin71°

h = 12(0.7314) / 0.9455

h = 8.7768/0.9455

h = 9.28m

Answer:

3.

7.608

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.

if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers

the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational

the only rational is the third
