<h2>Height of tree is 7.5 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the height of pole.

Given that the tree is 5 feet shorter than a pole.

Height of pole = t + 15

Also given that the pole is 3 times as tall as the tree.

Height of pole = 3t

So we have

              t + 15 = 3t

                 2t = 15

                   t = 7.5 feet

Height of tree = 7.5 feet

seropon [69]

Answer:

K=10 H=65

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out K, you need to know that opposite angles are the same, so 5k is the same as 50, 50÷5= 10, so k=10

To work out H, you know that opposite angles are the same so 2h is the same as 130, 130÷2=65 so h=65
