Answer:There are two right triangles. You need to find the opposite side (the height) of each of them. The difference between the two is the height of the blade, x.
You know the adjacent, 440, and you are looking for the opposite, so you need to use tan for both.
tan (30) = y / 440
y = 440 * tan (30) = 254.034...
tan (38.8) = z / 440
y = 440 * tan (38.8) = 353.769.--
353.8 - 254.0 = 99.8 = 100 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Markup means they sell it for that percentage more than they bought it for. First let's calculate how much they will mark it up for:

Convert 87% into a decimal(87/100):

Multiply:

This is how much they'll mark it up, now let's add it to how much they bought it for to find out the selling price:
50?
I'm assuming 50 because the angles to a triangle always adds up to 180 and this one has 130 and 130+50=180
