you have the hypotenuse and the opposite side so you will use sin
sin58= (30/q)
multiply both sides by q
q(sin58)=30
divide by sin58 in your calculatior
q=(30/sin58)
^ I don't have a calculator with me so you will need to plug that in
A foot is 12 inches.
12 can go into 58 evenly 4 times, since 12• 4 equals 48 but 12 • 5 equals 60. This means that the tree is at least 4 feet. Then to find the leftover inches we do 58-48 equals 10, therefore the answer is 58 inches translates to 4 feet and 10 inches.
