Just count
The value of x that is the length from the edge of the screen to the end of the wall is equal 3. This is derived from an equation which serves as a function of the Area. See the solution below.
<h3>
What is the calculation for the solution above?</h3>
Recall that the area of the entire wall is 40m².
(10-2x) (16- 2x) = 40
Expanding the brackets, we have
160-20x-32x + 4x² = 40
4x² - 52x + 120 = 0
x² - 13x +30 = 0
Using the quadratic equation
x = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
Where a = 1
b = 13
c = 30
x = (13 ± 7)/2
Thus x = 10; or x = 3.
x cannot be the answer because it invalidates 16-x<0;
Hence, the correct answer is x = 3

Answer:
86.63 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent relation applies.
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(77°) = (tree height)/(20 ft)
tree height = (20 ft)·tan(77°) ≈ 86.63 ft

It is somewhat problematic for Bob to see the top of a white pine tree at that angle of elevation. His view would likely be obscured by the branches of the tree.
