Answer: 15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.
Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side
Where α is the angle of elevation to the sun, , the opposite side (x) is the height of the tree, and the adjacent side is the length of the shadow.
Replacing with the values given:
Tan 31 = x /25
Tan 31 (25) =x
x = 15 feet
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
|PR| = |PQ| + |QR|; |PQ| = |QR| conclusion |PR| = 2|PQ|
|PQ| = 3y; |PR| = 42; |QR|=?
subtitute
42 = 2(3y)
6y = 42 |divide both sides by 6
y = 7
|QR| = 3(7) = 21
It doesn't matter. It's the same distance from zero
Answer:
The answer is 44- so B
