The height of the statue is 19.5 feet.
Why?
We can solve the problem using trigonometric formulas. In this case, we are going to use the trigonometric formula of the tangent.
We know that the person is standing 50ft from the statue, so, it will be the base of the two triangles formed by both angles (elevation and depression)
Using the trignometric formula, we have:
First triangle:
Second triangle:
Now, the total height of the statue will be:

Answer:
Sarah
Step-by-step explanation:
For Sarah
Sarah paid $3.84 for 32 ounces of carrots.
32 ounces = $3.84
1 ounce = x
Cross Multiply
x = $3.84/32
x = $0.12
For Sue
Sue paid $5.20 for 40 ounces of carrots.
40 ounces = $5.20
1 ounce = x
Cross Multiply
x = $5.20/40
x = $0.13
Who paid less per ounce?
Sarah paid less per ounce
The total amount of degrees in a triangle is 180. All three angles should add up to 180˚
We know that 40+60 = 100
The next step is to do 180-100 to get the other angle.
180-100 = 80
So the measure of the third angle is 80˚
Hope this helps!
(Also if you want to do this in one equation, you would do 40+60+x = 180
40+60+x = 180
100+x = 180 (combine like terms)
x = 80 (Subtract 100 from both sides)
