Answer:

h = 16.92 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If you mean to man horizontal line of sight then the height of the tree is:

h = 2m + x

x is one right side and second is distance from the base of a tree 32m.

Tangence in this right triangle is:

tan 25° = x / 32 => x = 32 · tan 25° = 32 · 0.4663 = 14.92m

h = 2 + 14.92 = 16.92m

Answer:

H=16.92 (MARK ME AS BRAINIEST)

Step-by-step explanation:

The side opposite 25° is the height of the tree. The side adjacent to 25° is the distance the man is standing from the tree.

tan 25°=

opposite side

adjacent side

Let h-2 represent the height of the tree

h - 2) = 32 tan 25°

h - 2 = 14.92

h = 16.92 meters
