Answer:

D: 2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:

BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.

None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.

While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.

There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.

Answer: height of the tower is 1064 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the height of the tower.

Assuming her line of sight of the top of the tower is a straight line, then a right angle triangle is formed. The height, h of the tower represents the opposite side of the triangle. Her distance from the foot of the tower represents the adjacent side of the triangle.

To determine h, we would apply the tangent trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Tan θ = opposite side/adjacent side

Therefore,

Tan 85.7 = h/80

h = 80tan 85.7

h = 1064 feet
