Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.
As we can see from the diagram,
RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill
PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill
SR= h=height of the statue
=Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.
= which is unknown.
Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in :
Which gives to be:
Now, we know that and can be added to give us the complete angle in the right triangle .
We can again use the tan trigonometric ratio in to solve for the height of the statue, h.
This can be done as:
Thus, the height of the statue is approximately, 8.45 feet.
The answer would be 14/45
First, 10 1/2 is the same as 21/2
If there are 12 inches in a foot then
21/2*12=126 inches

Answer:
73/80
Step-by-step explanation:
multiples of 11 between 1 and 80 are 11,22,33,44,55,66,77
number of terms=7
P(multiple of 11)=7/80
P(not a multiple of 11)=1-7/80=73/80
