This is the concept of geometry, the height of the tree will be given by:
tan theta=[opposite]/[adjacent]
theta=24
opposite=h
adjacent=26m
thus;
tan 24=h/26
hence;
h=26tan24
h=10.29
=10 m

This is a 3 part question, PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLY
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Angle of A = 90 degree-62 degree =  28 degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan (62) = opposite / adjacent = 10 / a ---> a = 10/tan (62) = 10/ 1.88 = 5.319

cos (62) = a/c --->c = a/cos (62) = 5.319 / 0.47  = 5.3 / 0.47  = 11.3

or another way.

sin (62) = 10 /c  ---> c = 10/ sin (62) = 10 / 0.88 = 11.3

So Angle of A = 28 degree.

a = 5. 3

c =  11.3.

please give me brainliest. I hope it help.
