In the given diagram, we can note that the tree divides the hypotenuse of the triangle as well as the side where the tree is based into halves.
In a triangle, when a line is drawn joining between the midpoints of two sides, this line is always parallel to the third side and equals half its length.
Applying this concept to the given diagram here, we will find that the tree is joining the midpoints of two sides of the triangle. this means that the tree is parallel to the building and the height of the tree is half the height of the building.
Therefore:
height of tree = 0.5 * 120 = 60 ft
Looking at the given question, we can find several important information's and based on thm we can easily calculate the amount after 10 years.
Principal amount = $550
Rate of interest per year = 3%
Number of years the amount is to be kept = 10 years
Now we get put these information's in the formula of finding amount of money kepy in simple interest.
Amount = P(1 + rt)
Where
p = principal amount
r = rate of interest
t = Time
Then
Amount = 550[1 + (3/100) * 10)]
= 550 [1 + 3/10]
= 550 * (13/10)
= 55 * 13
= 715 dollars
So the total amount in my account will be $715
X= -14/3 !
