Refer to the figure.
Let AB be the height of the pole; CD be the height of the transit; BC is the distance from the base of the pole to the transit.

Triangle ADE is a right triangle with angle D measuring 26 degrees. Using the tangent function, we have
     tan\:26^{\circ} =\frac{AE}{120}
So, 
     AE=120\:tan\:26^{\circ}
     AE=58.53\:

Therefore, the overall height of the pole is 
     AB=58.53+8=66.53\:feet

The height of the pole is 66.53 feet.

Is the term (X + 2) a factor of the polynomial shown below?
QveST [7]

The correct answer is: No, the remainder is -114

Further explanation:

In order to check whether the given term is a factor of given polynomial or not we will put

x+2=0

x=-2

Given

f(x)=x^3 - 10x^2 + 27^x - 12\\f(-2)=(-2)^3-10(-2)^2+27(-2)- 12\\=-8-10(4)-54-12\\=-8-40-54-12\\=-114

As the remainder is -114, the term x+2 is not a factor of given polynomial

The correct answer is: No, the remainder is -114
