Answer:
x=
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this we need to use the pythagorean theorem.
This theorem states that the a^2+b^2=c^2
where a and b are sides of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.
This said we can set up the following expression:
4^2+5^2=c^2
Simplify.
16+25=c^2
41=c^2
c=
c is what we named x, so x=

Answer:
≈ 345.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a right triangle formed by Bonnie's height (h) the ground and the angle of elevation.
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan20° = =
( multiply both sides by 950 )
950 × tan20° = h , thus
h ≈ 345.8 ft ( to 1 dec. place )
