Answer:

here you have to use the law of sines

let tree make an angle of 83 deg.with the ground. (YZ)angle ZYX = 83deg

he walks 100 feet away from tree to point X (YX)angle YXZ= 33 deg

so remaining angle YZX = 64 deg

triangle YXZ is formed

sin A /a = sin B /b = sin C /c

Sin YZX/100 = sin YXZ/ YZ

sin 64/100 = sin 33/YZ

 

100 * sin 33/sin 64 = YZ

100*0.54/0.898= YZ

YZ= 60.13 feet the height of the tree

Step-by-step explanation:

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 cards in total (1-10 is 10 numbers). Only 1 of  the numbers is a 9. So the probability of picking the 9 is 1/10. Then do 1 - 1/10 to find the probability of not picking the 9. This is 9/10.
