Change 5'9" to 5.75 ft; let t = height of the tree
You can use ratio here (corresponding sides of similar triangles):
5 x 75/ 5 = t/165
cross multiply
5t = 5.75*165
5t = 948.75
t = 948.75/ 5
t = 189.75 ft or 189 ft 9 inches

marishachu [46]

Answer:

4368 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Use nCk for this. 16C5. This is $\frac{n!}{(n-k)!(k!)}$ . This becomes $\frac{16!}{(11!)(5!)}$ . This is $\frac{16*15*14*13*12}{5*4*3*2*1}$ due to 16! and 5! canceling out. This becomes 4368.
