I think best word to insert in the blank is the term "bisecting".
An altitude of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex of the triangle and is bisecting <span>to the line containing the opposite side.
</span>"Bisect<span>" means to divide into two equal parts which is true for the altitude of a triangle.</span>
Answer: 19 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.
Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side
Where α is the angle of depression of the dog, the opposite side (16) is Ted's eye level above the ground, and the adjacent side (x) is the distance between the dog and the barn door.
Replacing with the values given:
tan40 = 16/x
Solving for x
x =16/tan40
x= 19 ft
