True

using the converse of Pythagoras' identity

Given 3 sides of a triangle, if the longest side squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides then triangle is right.

longest side squared = 26² = 676

sum of other 2 sides squared = 24² + 10² = 576 + 100 = 676

Hence triangle is right

So the circumference of a circle is C=2 times pi times the radius. in this case it would be C= 2(pi)(4) which is 25.1 :)

Reika [66]

See the attached diagram.

In the right triangle, x is opposite the 23.6 degree angle, and the adjacent side is 250 m. This suggests using the tangent ratio.

$\frac{x}{250}=\tan 23.6 ^\circ \\ x=250 \cdot \tan 23.6^\circ \approx 109.2$

Finally, to get the height of the tree, add Sarah's height, 1.5 m.

The tree is approximately 110.7m tall.
