In trigonometric, to find the vertical line length with horizontal line you need tan function. The sun angle will be used in the function, so the calculation would be: tan(31) x 42ft = 25.2361459992ft

So I’m not great in math at all I spent 15 min crying because I don’t get it so anyone pls help
Yuri [45]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = \frac{1}{2} bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

Here b = 13 and h = 4 , thus

A = \frac{1}{2} × 13 × 4 = \frac{1}{2} × 52 = 26 units² → A
