The task represents triangle with 90 degrees angle bellow top of the waterslide. that means that we can yous trigonometry functions to find out all the angles or lengths of triangle.

In this case we need to find height which we will find using tan function.
tan(13) = x/58.2
x = 58.2*tan(13) =  13.43m

Answer is 13.43 meters

Are these(4,1) 1,-3) (2,0) solutions to this graph?
kogti [31]
(4,1) : no because the line is solid.
(1,-3) : yes because the line is not solid.
(2,0) : no because the line is solid.

Solid lines represent < or >, and if a point is on the line directly, it’s not included in the solution set.
