The first (and most typical) way to find distance of two points is by using the distance formula.
One alternative is the Manhattan metric, also called the taxicab metric. This option is much more complicated, and rarely used in high school math. d(x,y)=∑i|xi-yi|
Answer:
306.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure .
A surveyor moves 160 feet away from the base of the pole i.e. ED = 160 m
Referring the image .
AC=ED=160 m
A transit i.e. AE is 6 feet tall.
AE = CD=6 feet
With a transmit the angle of elevation to the top of the pole to be 62° i.e. ∠BAC = 62°
To Find BC , use tigonometric ratio.
Now, the height of the pole = BC+CD =300.8+6=306.8 feet
Hence the height of the pole is 306.8 feet
