Answer:
Your missing a number and your answer is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
-5^4
= -625
-5 • -5 • -5 • -5 = -625
Let y = the distance between the top left corner and the bottom right corner
y^2 = 24^2 + 15^2
y^2 = 801
y = 3 * sqrt(89)
Now we can find x.
12^2 + x^2 = (3 * sqrt(89))^2
x^2 = 657
x = 3 * sqrt(73) or 25.63
The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.
... tan(45°) = (height above eye level)/(20 m)
... height above eye level = (20 m)·tan(45°) = (20 m)·1 = 20 m
_____
Eye level is 1.7 m above ground, so the height of the flagpole above ground is
... height of pole = height above eye level + height of eye level
... height of pole = 20 m + 1.7 m = 21.7 m
