<span>You would need a ladder length of 28 feet. If you compute the hypotenuse of a right triangle, or 26 feet squared plus 9 feet squared, you get an answer of 757, the square root of which is 27.51 feet, to give yourself enough ladder, we round that number up to 28 feet.</span>

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The height of the statue is 21.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue

The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 16 degree when staring at the top of the statue

hen the person looks down at an angle of depression of 8 degree when staring at the base of the statue

Firstly, we will draw diagram

In triangle ABF:

FC=50

we can use trig formula

tan(16)=\frac{y}{50}

y=50tan(16)

y=14.33727ft

now, we can find x

In triangle DEF:

we can use trig formula

tan(8)=\frac{x}{50}

x=50tan(8)

x=7.0270ft

we can see that

height of statue =x+y

so, the height of statue is

=14.33727+7.0270

=21.4ft
