Answer:
18.7939 m
Step-by-step explanation:
-Let x be the distance between John and clock tower.
-Let y be the vertical distance from the eyes of the two men standing to the top of the clock tower.
#Taking the right triangle ACD:
#Taking the right triangle ABD:
#We equate the two yo solve for x and y;
Hence, John's distance from the tower's base is 18.7939 m
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a 90 degree angle.
90-60=30
30=the remaining angle, 3x
x=30/3, or 10

I am not so sure of this but I feel it would serve as hint
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
altitude = sqrt(6*8) = 4*sqrt(3)
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to derive x
altitude^2 + 18^2 = x^2
48 + 18^2 = x^2
x^2 = 342
x = 3*sqrt(38)
x = 18.49
