30 60 90 triangle Ratio of short leg: long leg: hypo = x : x√3 : 2x Given long leg = 555 feet = 185√3 * √3 So short leg = 185√3 ft long leg = 555 ft hypo = 370 ft hypo is the longest's height
short leg: The distance from the man's feet to the base of the monument = 185√3 ft hypo: The distance from the man's feet to the top of the monument = 370 ft
Answer: A. The distance from the man's feet to the base of the monument is 185√3 feet D. The segment representing the monument's height is the longest segment in the triangle
