This is an angle of elevation problem. So, we use the tangent ratio.

tan84=x/150


this then becomes

x=150(tan84)


which simplifies to

150∗(tan84)=1427


Since she only begins to observe the building 5 feet higher than where it starts, we add 5+1427, so your final answer is 1432 feet tall!

sineoko [7]

Answer: These Lines are <em>Parallel</em>

Step-by-step explanation: For two lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope with different y-intercepts. Both of the lines above have a slope of 3 and differing y-intercepts of 4 and -5. Therefore, these lines must be parallel to one another.
