Answer:
19.85
Step-by-step explanation:
158.80 divided by 8 is 19.85
I would solve this using tangents. Let h be height of flagpole.
Set up 2 right triangles, each with a base of 40.
The larger triangle has height of "h+70"
Smaller triangle has height of 70.
Now write the tangent ratios:

Note: A-B = 9
To solve for h we need to use the "Difference Angle" formula for Tangent

Plug in what we know:



Plug in the values of x and y into each ineqaulity and see which one fits
You'll find it is d
