Answer: The height of street  would be 3.26 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Angle of elevation = 71°

Distance traveled = 12 feet

Angle of elevation becomes 46°.

So, the height of the street lamp post would be

h=\dfrac{d}{\cot 46^\circ-\cot 71^\circ}\\\\h=\dfrac{12}{0.965-0.344}\\\\h=\dfrac{12}{0.620}\\\\h=3.26\ feet

Hence, the height of street  would be 3.26 feet.

(A) Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree<span>
Given that the distance of the ground is 9ft.
Length of the plank is 41 ft

In order to get the angle formed between the ground and the foot of the plank,

cos (theta) = ground / plank
cos (theta) = 9 / 41
