Answer:

Biff height = 9.48m

Rocco's height= 4.74m

Step-by-step explanation:

As Rocco's tree is half as tall as Biff's tree, draw a horizontal line from Rocco on Rocco's tree which intersects the Biff's tree at he middle.

The angle 70 degrees is divided by 2 because of the horizontal line.

An upper right angle triangle is form by Rocco (point A), Midpoint of Biff's tree(point B), and Biff (point C).

As

tan\theta = \frac{perpendicular}{base\\}

where θ=35 and  base= 10m

tan35=\frac{perpendical}{10}

(tan35)(10)=perpendicular\\perpendicular=4.74

As the perpendicular found is that of a triangle formed from midpoint of Biff's, to find the total height, multiply the found perpendicular with 2.

Biff height = 4.74*2 = 9.48m

Rocco's height is half of biff height

Rocco's height= 9.48/2 = 4.74m

Answer:

Biff's tree is 14 m off the ground and Rocco's tree is 7 m off the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of Biff's tree be represented by x, so that the height of Rocco's tree is \frac{x}{2}.

Draw a straight line from Rocco's point of view to a point t to the middle of Biff's tree. This line divides x into two equal parts, and the angle is divided into 35^{0} each.

By alternate angle property,

Tan  35^{0} = \frac{\frac{x}{2} }{10}

\frac{x}{2} = Tan  35^{0} × 10

  = 7.00021

⇒       x = 2 × 7.0021

            = 14. 0042

         x = 14

Therefore, Biff's tree is 14 m off the ground and Rocco's tree is 7 m off the ground.

Darina [25.2K]
When calculating accrued interest over several years that compounds annually, you must calculate a new principle each year, adding the accrued interest from the previous year. At the beginning of the new interest period, all the accrued interest is added to the principal which forms a new principle figure that the interest is then counted on.

Anon25 [30]
It tells us that:

(-2,4)
(-1,3)
(1,6)
(3,5)
(4,8)

Look at (3,5) ... it tells us that x = 3 and y = 5

So y = 5
