Answer:

Brandyn is 41.48m from Chris

Step-by-step explanation:

I have drawn an image depicting this question and I've attached it.

From the diagram, chris is standing at point B while Brandyn is at point D. x is the distance of brandyn to the bottom of the pole.

The height of the pole is AC.

Now, by trigonometric ratio, we can find AC. Thus;

AC/20 = tan 35

AC = 20 tan 35

AC = 14

Since,we now have AC, we can find x.

Similarly, 14/x = tan 27

x = 14 / tan 27

x = 27.48 m

Thus, total distance of brandyn from Chris = 14 + 27.48 = 41.48 m

Viktor [21]

<u>Given:</u>

The angle of elevation from the point on the ground to the top of the tree is 34° and the point is 25 feet from the base of the tree.

We need to determine the height of the tree.

<u>Height of the tree:</u>

Let the height of the tree be h.

The height of the tree can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

tan \ \theta=\frac{opp}{adj}

Substituting the values, we get;

tan \ 34^{\circ}=\frac{h}{25}

Multiplying both sides by 25, we have;

tan \ 34^{\circ} \times 25=h

 0.6745 \times 25=h

       16.8625=h

Rounding off to the nearest tenth of a foot, we get;

16.9=h

Thus, the height of the tree is 16.9 feet.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
