Answer:

  174.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be helpful to draw a diagram of the triangle we're concerned with. (See attached.)

We know the angle at the end of the shadow inside the triangle is 52°-22° = 30°. We assume the tree is growing straight up out of the hillside, so its angle with the hill inside the triangle is 90°+22° = 112°. Then the remaining angle between the shadow and the tree at the top of the tree is ...

  180° -30° -112° = 38°

Now, we have the angle opposite the tree, and the angle opposite the known side length of the triangle (215 feet along the hill, AC in the diagram). This is enough information to usefully use the Law of Sines.

  c/sin(C) = a/sin(A)

  c = a(sin(C)/sin(A)) = (215 ft)(sin(30°)/sin(38°)) ≈ 174.6 ft

The height of the tree is about 174.6 feet.

<h3>Define professional major league baseball (MLB).</h3>

Major League Baseball (MLB), the world's oldest significant professional sports league, is a baseball-related organization. In MLB, there are 30 clubs in each of the National League and American League, with 29 of them being headquartered in the United States and one in Canada. The National League and the American League were started, respectively, in 1876 and 1901. The two leagues came to an agreement in 1903 called the National Agreement, and they have collaborated ever since. They were nonetheless legally distinct entities until 2000 when they united to create a single entity under the direction of the Baseball Commissioner.
